snailking1 Pillar of the Community United States 1235 Posts	Posted 03/18/2026 1:40 pm I'm thinking no. Believe it's just flattened. The (I'll call it) hook on the S looks to be in the correct spot when comparing it to PCGS pics. https://www.pcgs.com/coinfacts/coin...fs-503/38489 https://www.pcgs.com/coinfacts/coin/1941-s-5c/4012 Report this Post to the Staff

Brandmeister Pillar of the Community United States 6451 Posts	Posted 03/18/2026 2:41 pm That's a small S nickel. You can compare the size of the mint marks on PCGS: https://www.pcgs.com/coinfacts/coin/1941-s-5c/4012 https://www.pcgs.com/coinfacts/coin...e-fs-501/384 The de-listed FS-503 Inverted-S is also a small S nickel, but this isn't it. The 503 has been debunked anyway as a damaged punch or a tilted punch. Report this Post to the Staff
