Since this is a Proof, which noone, I believe, mentioned, it's understandable that this is a missed "triple tap".

Please stop with the insults. Snafu was simply asking a good question and doesn't deserve to read posts such as I've seen here. We don't need to insult anyone's intelligence on our forum, or try to act like the bigger person...just grow up and act like adults...answer the questions as YOU see them and move on.

So sorry Snafu for the childish angst that you've had to endure here. You have a very nice '64 Kennedy!

It looks to me like the tight spread on the mintmark and on the small die gouge in the field below the mintmark could not have been the result of a multiple mintmark punch. MDD (Machine Damage Doubling) explains it.
