Hordfest Valued Member United States 208 Posts	Posted 07/09/2023 2:18 pm I came across this coin that I believe is a 1913-S raised mound. However, the date is missing. But the Mound on the reverse looks clearly raised and the S mintmark is still visible. Would you feel comfortable IDing this since raised mounds are 1913 only? I'd prefer not to nic-a-date it if possible. Would fill a hole in my album! Edited by Hordfest 07/09/2023 2:18 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Dearborn Moderator United States 94992 Posts	Posted 07/10/2023 11:09 pm Yes, the raised mound (type 1) will only be found on the early struck 1913 nickels, the design was changed later in the year to flat ground (type 2) Collecting since 1972.
