ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 19125 Posts	Posted 09/11/2023 07:33 am Agree--back then mint marks were manually placed. As such, mint mark positions can vary some--and they do. Report this Post to the Staff

Dearborn Moderator United States 94928 Posts	Posted 09/11/2023 11:09 am nice find on this 'close call' - if the MM were touching the date, then we would be seeing something out of the normal.

nickelsearcher Moderator United States 15394 Posts	Posted 09/11/2023 2:49 pm Nice find on this one - definitely a bit of an outlier but still within mint tolerance at the time it was punched. Take a look at my other hobby ... http://www.jk-dk.art Report this Post to the Staff
