RedMP1972 Valued Member United States 87 Posts	Posted 07/24/2021 11:17 pm Any thoughts on this "P" mint mark. I realize the 1981P does not have a known RPM, but what is this? Late die state strike? Report this Post to the Staff

Dearborn Moderator United States 97728 Posts	Posted 07/24/2021 11:23 pm Looks like a 'P' mint mark with the center post that had been broken off allowing the hole in the P to be filled in Collecting since 1972.

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 07/26/2021 11:52 am Didn't have a chance with all the vending machines and casino machine during that time. Just a wasted coin but still a face coin. (Wasted to us, but still an active "coin citizen". Still doing the job it was created for. To make change, and be to be spent.
