Hey all, I know this is a terrible worn coin but I would like your opinions on which mint mark is on this US 5 cent from 1912.  I can upload more images if needed, thank you for your interest. |

I really need a coin microscope, the camera I have isn't the best. Regardless here is another image.  |

I also think it's a D. A quick look on Heritage and it seems all the S mint marks are aligned with the right edge of the dot or centered, and many of the D's are aligned with the left edge as yours shows.

Looks like a D with a hit or scratch in the center.

Likely a Denver mint coin - but why does that matter? From the small portion I can see in the photo the coin is in cull state.
Perhaps you are trying to assemble a lowball set?
