Bigtn9 New Member United States 17 Posts	Posted 10/29/2021 09:39 am At first glance there seems to be no mint mark, but I noticed trail lines that were prominent then I finally noticed the mint mark. I've weighed the coin and it's a small date 3.1g.does anyone have any feedback or recommendation as to whether or not this is an actual transitional error coin, or what I am seeing is something other than a mint mark that was there and isn't now? Any help would definitely be appreciated because I need it. (All pics are of the actually coin, but the last picture I added highlights to show what I am seeing, but it too is an actual picture of the coin) Report this Post to the Staff

merclover Bedrock of the Community United States 10635 Posts	Posted 10/29/2021 1:44 pm Please work on your photos as they are terribly dark and have too much contrast. Practice. I am agreeing with others, you're seeing something that just isn't there, sorry. The real D mint mark is much smaller than your phantom D. to the CCF! Report this Post to the Staff
