Metalman Pillar of the Community United States 7123 Posts	Posted 04/01/2006 03:09 am Hi scoutjim99 The odds of the Roosevelt 55-S dime being counterfieted is nil,, by mintage figures for that year The S mint stood head and shoulders above the other mints on production,which equates to more dies being used. Keep in mind that the mint marks were added to the working dies ,,and small changes are not at all uncommon in coins of this era ,,position and shape,,even an extra wack of the hammer could change the appearance of the mint mark. I would like to see pics !!! Rick Edited by Metalman 04/01/2006 03:13 am Report this Post to the Staff
