A modest specimen for my variety reference library. Pretty sure this is an inverted mint mark on a 1942-S dime, FS-501.

Sure looks like it.
BTW- which of the MM images is your coin?

Both MM images are this coin. One with the mini scope, the other with the clip-on macro lens when I removed it from the mini-axial box. The second picture was at an angle, and I think that makes it look somewhat distorted.

Anyway, thanks guys! =)
