coppercoins Pillar of the Community United States 7629 Posts	Posted 11/12/2010 8:17 pm I know the mintmark styles exist for 1947, but I have not studied them. The 1974S mintmark styles are interesting, because all of the small date coins I know of display the smaller 1971 style mintmark, and all of the large dates display the larger, fuller mintmark. Given this, I am assuming the mintmarks are a 1:1 relationship with date sizes, and those are about 50-50. The place where it makes a difference is that ALL proofs are large date, but both mintmark styles exist on the proofs. Report this Post to the Staff
