Zillaibar New Member United States 1 Posts	Posted Yesterday 5:25 pm Is the placement of either of these 1977 -D dime mint mark unusual? I've looked at several others and never found one placed so far to the left before (above between the two 7's) * Edited by Staff to Add Year and/or Mintmark and/or Denomination to Title. It's essential to have it in the title. * Report this Post to the Staff

Because mint marks used to be punched in by hand into the coin dies, mint marks locations varied. They were punched in by hand until 1989. 1989 was the last year that the U.S. Mint punched the mint mark in by hand. Errers and Varietys.
