PennyPoor New Member United States 5 Posts	Posted 05/17/2023 12:16 am It appears like a D/S but it would be the first one found. Doesn't mean it Doesn't exist just might no have been found till now. The coin has other questionable marks like after the last A in America. Liberty appears faintly at 8 to 7oclock.the fg isn't right eitgerI see other questions on there too but maybe I will see what yall see and not influence anyones vision. I will say that thank yall for being the only coin forum I have come across that most topica no one makes any one else feel stupid for asking or not knowing. Condescending answers seem to be the normal response in Numismatic forums except here. Thanks again Report this Post to the Staff

SamCoin Pillar of the Community United States 3237 Posts	Posted 05/17/2023 02:24 am Just a mashed up mint mark that took a ding in circulation. There is no such thing as a 1976 D/S. Over-mint marks stopped about two decades before this. Report this Post to the Staff
Spence Moderator United States 34427 Posts	Posted 05/17/2023 05:07 am @penny, I'm glad to hear that you have found a warm reception here. Find a previously undiscovered OMM would be quite something indeed. Unfortunately it looks to me too like circulation damage is a much better explanation for this oddly-shaped mint mark and the various other aspects you mention.
