Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 12/20/2020 12:09 pm Since mint marks were punched into the die by hand back then, they can be all over the place. This is an extreme for sure, but I doubt it carries much value. Edited by Coinfrog 12/20/2020 12:10 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Spence Moderator United States 34426 Posts	Posted 12/20/2020 1:16 pm For me, this one is worth a 2x2. I know we say that there is only a premium if it is touching the date, but man that mm is really close.
