Archeo1982 Pillar of the Community Netherlands 521 Posts	Posted 11/20/2020 09:28 am Is the Mintmark TSA or TS Delta? Report this Post to the Staff
erafjel Pillar of the Community Sweden 2124 Posts	Posted 11/20/2020 09:48 am I would say Delta. The letter has a distinct horizontal base, that one does not see on the A's. Report this Post to the Staff

Is it part of the mint name or the officina @travelcoin: It was one of my: I-will-look-at-them-later-dusty-coin-piles I'll probably put the coin up for sale. It is actually still too early for my collection area. Report this Post to the Staff
erafjel Pillar of the Community Sweden 2124 Posts	Posted 11/20/2020 4:44 pm You're welcome. The Delta signifies that it is minted in the 4th officina. The TS stands for Thessalonica. There were five officinae, denoted Alfa, Beta, Gamma, Delta, Epsilon. Report this Post to the Staff
