Spence Moderator United States 34430 Posts	Posted 12/24/2020 5:07 pm @reese, since the mintmarks were applied by hand to the dies, there is a broad area of acceptable locations. Usually we tell folks that unless it is actually touching the date, then there is no added value. That said, of course keep it if you want!
