Lady_K_Seeker New Member United States 36 Posts	Posted 02/18/2023 09:55 am I found this cent yesterday in a friend's pile of loose change. It seems to have 2 weak copies of the D mintmark. This is due to a re-punched mint mark, correct? Does the distance and rotation of the second mark increase the significance/value of this find? Please forgive the lack of multiple pictures - this is the only one I thought to take at the time, and I don't have access to it at the moment to take more; my friend still has it.
