ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 19241 Posts	Posted 04/12/2023 9:23 pm Mint marks were placed by hand back in the day--through 1989 is my understanding. Consequently, the position of mint marks will (and do) vary. I've come cross '56 Ds just like this one. Report this Post to the Staff
itzwert Valued Member United States 72 Posts	Posted 04/12/2023 9:48 pm The D is so close to touching the nine. Extremely close. It just just barley not touching the 9 Report this Post to the Staff
Dearborn Moderator United States 98107 Posts	Posted 04/12/2023 10:16 pm Too bad it is not touching, a small premium comes with a touching MM and date. if not touching that it is just as ijn states.

Spence Moderator United States 34441 Posts	Posted 04/12/2023 10:40 pm @itz, a better closeup image of the mintmark is needed to see if there is a RPM. With that said, I'm not seeing a great match with the known RPMs. Here is the varietyvista link to help you with your research. http://varietyvista.com/02a%20LC%20...%201956D.htm "If you climb a good tree, you get a push." -----Ghanaian proverb "The danger we all now face is distinguishing between what is authentic and what is performed." -----King Adz Report this Post to the Staff
