Here's another Mercury dime I was checking over in a mix lot. The mint mark is shift under between the branch and leave, instead of the usual position I see in most other 1943 S dimes. Does anyone else have similar examples?

Mint marks were place on the dies by a hand punched chisel. Any location in that area is possible.

Here is one I found in a bunch of silver Merc's. It's minor and not listed yet. But I feel it has great potential.

Nice! Looks to be S over S variety, with second S south of it.
