Found this in a CWR today and the MM looks inverted to me. Figured I would post it for opinions.

Well ... you should know this is a proof coin ... right?

I can tell from the photos that this is a Lincoln Cent ... but you did not mention that anywhere in you post or title .... Titles are Important.

This appears to me to be a normal 1990-S Proof Lincoln MM ... nice find for a roll search.

An inverted mintmark is not possible for this coin. The S mintmark for proof coins was added to the master die in 1985.

Don't know what the MM should look like but it does look a little odd.

An inverted mm might be possible, but if it was it would be inverted on ALL of the coins of that denomination/mint for that year.

The Lincoln Cent Resource website has s mintmark examples, but I don't see this one.
