Jim0815 Pillar of the Community United States 5240 Posts	Posted 06/03/2019 5:20 pm I found this 1964 D LMC with what looks like a completely different mintmark than the MMS-008 which was the MM used in 1964. It more resembles the MMS-007. It hasn't taken a hit or anything that I can see to alter its appearance. I have yet to have see this on a 1964 D. Thoughts?

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 06/03/2019 7:22 pm A closer view of the mintmark. It looks like it may have taken a hit on the upper part of the mintmark? Note the bulge where the white color is? A contact mark may have altered it. Report this Post to the Staff

Greasy Fingers Pillar of the Community United States 7078 Posts	Posted 06/03/2019 7:31 pm Top coin,I'm thinking circ. flattening and toned over during the last 55 years (looks like the 9-6 and 4 have been affected) top "wing" of D missing maybe due to grease filled small part of MM. Just IMO... Report this Post to the Staff
Jim0815 Pillar of the Community United States 5240 Posts	Posted 06/03/2019 9:26 pm The mintmark has not taken a hit. It is not flattened as it is as tall as a mint mark from an AU cent. I think this is the MMS-007 not the MMS-008. Report this Post to the Staff
Tunnioc Pillar of the Community United States 3183 Posts	Posted 06/03/2019 10:52 pm Kinda looks like a modern D mint mark, but it's just flattening from all the machines it's been through. Report this Post to the Staff
