Habib Alimohamma Valued Member Australia 143 Posts	Posted 04/20/2021 10:08 am Hi every body, I have a 1935 US Mercury dime which I thought should be Philadelphia mint, but when I looked at the reverse of the coin, I realised that it had "D" mint mark which was removed and then used as a Philadelphia mint. Please have a look to the high lighted part of the pictures and let me know if I am right or wrong? With regards, Habib. Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 04/20/2021 10:12 am How about an image a little further back. That way we can a little more about what is going on. It might be die flow lines or a possible fill of grease on the mintmark. Either way it would not warrant a premium. (but inquiring minds always want to know) Edited by coop 04/20/2021 10:21 am Report this Post to the Staff
Numisma Pillar of the Community United States 4963 Posts	Posted 04/20/2021 10:25 am Grease Fill is a possibility. It doesn't look intentional, and I can't imagine why someone would go to the trouble of making it look like a more common date. While it looks like a mintmark, I don't want to rule out Pareidolia.

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 04/20/2021 10:28 am Well it does have the rounded look on the top left side of the normal mintmark on the shadow mintmark? Report this Post to the Staff
