Ballyhoo Pillar of the Community United States 1613 Posts	Posted 05/13/2022 12:00 am To my knowledge, San Francisco never had a mint medallion. West Point, certainty not. There are, however, larger versions in souvenir sets. These are about halve dollar size.

(as if the 'D' wasn't enough to indicate which mint it came from - or the lack of one ['P']). Since Denver and Philadelphia are the only mints that produce the uncirculated sets, these are the only ones you will find. Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget.

KenKat Pillar of the Community United States 4085 Posts	Posted 05/13/2022 7:59 pm I have always called them mint tokens but I don't know if that is the official name - if there is one. I've used them in my Lincoln sets exactly as nss-52 says. My 7070 US Type Set My 7100 Lincoln Cent Set (now with updates!) Report this Post to the Staff

They were placed in the set instead of the SBA dollar that was not minted that year. In 1983 they reverted to the 1968-1972 proof set lens layout (five coins).

Mine is in my SBA Dansco page to fill the 16th hole since my set only has 15 coins (I did not worry about rim or mint mark varieties).
