Spence Moderator United States 34472 Posts	Posted 04/12/2023 09:14 am While that close-up image is really well done, I'm not seeing doubling on the mintmark. For sure there is flattening due to circulation wear and a small ding on the body of the letter S. In which direction do you see another letter S?

HumblePie Pillar of the Community United States 1217 Posts	Posted 04/12/2023 12:50 pm I'm not sure if you have looked on here for a close-up of the mintmark and position, if not here you go. https://www.indianvarieties.com/cen...8-s-die-006/ The comments they have are - "This die has traditionally not been accepted as a repunched mint mark. Something like a die or gouge appears in the top loop of the S." Report this Post to the Staff
