FlapSlapClap New Member United States 18 Posts	Posted 12/07/2025 7:53 pm I googled it but didn't really get any solid answers. Ever since I found this time and noticed it I've checked every single fine I've touched since then and have yet to another with a d. It located at the bottom of the torch on the left side.

ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 19129 Posts	Posted 12/07/2025 8:26 pm Yes, it looks to be a very legit Denver mint mark placement. Report this Post to the Staff
JimmyD Bedrock of the Community Canada 21589 Posts	Posted 12/07/2025 8:27 pm Up to 1964, the mint mark was on the reverse. In 1965 it was moved to the obverse. Yours is a normal 1963 dime. Edited by JimmyD 12/07/2025 8:29 pm Report this Post to the Staff
Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 73812 Posts	Posted 12/07/2025 8:31 pm My bad. It's normal for the mint mark to be there near the torch on the reverse. I misunderstood the question. Should have read the description more carefully. Errers and Varietys. Edited by Errers and Varietys 12/07/2025 8:31 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Marv65 Bedrock of the Community United States 10492 Posts	Posted 12/07/2025 9:15 pm Right! Philadelphia Mint strikes have no mintmarks - Denver Mint marks are "D". Try asking CCF instead of AI Google! Report this Post to the Staff

FlapSlapClap New Member United States 18 Posts	Posted 12/07/2025 11:38 pm I kind of figured it was normal and not an error I just couldn't figure out why I didn't see it on any other dimes but then again all the other dimes I checked where more recent ones. Oh and Errers... My friends say I speak in rifles and have a strange way of talking so it's very likely I worded it in a confusing way. Report this Post to the Staff
