For reference, here is a link to the VarietyVista page that would cover this type of RPM or OMM. I'm only seeing a D/D for 1974. http://www.varietyvista.com/02b%20L...intmarks.htm "If you climb a good tree, you get a push." -----Ghanaian proverb "The danger we all now face is distinguishing between what is authentic and what is performed." -----King Adz Report this Post to the Staff
silverwolf Pillar of the Community Canada 3733 Posts	Posted 07/01/2019 8:19 pm it is an "s" mint mark, looks like it took a hit on the top of the s and pushed the metal down. Report this Post to the Staff

Spence Moderator United States 34397 Posts	Posted 07/01/2019 8:55 pm Looks to me like @agwolf nailed it, but I'm interested to hear what others think.
