A slant mint mark? I know there was one year where if the mint mark was slanted like this - was saught after? I'm curious to know a little more about it from the community here.. The real reason I even looked at this was due to the mint luster that it has and considering putting it a side for grading..

Thank you to everyone who has stopped by to take a look!

It is tilted a little bit. Mint marks used to be punched by hand on to the dies until 1989, so the positions varied on each die.

Mint marks were hand punched that year so placement will vary. It is within mint tolerance.
