Hello,

Can you tell if the S is over the D mint mark?

Thanks!

We can rule out an OMM, as over mint marks ceased decades prior to '76.

This coin is making my brain hurt. Is it a proof or a business strike? It looks like a circulated business strike, but I didn't even know that San Francisco minted business strike cents in 1976.

Nice catch, Brand, didn't even think about it. It does have nice proof like rims though but that's about all that looks like a proof. Just a well circulated impaired proof, I guess? They did still use MMS-009 on the proof coins for this year though.
