I bought a liberty bell glass coin jar full of pennies for 50cents at the thrift store. Many of the pennies are 1976's with no mint marks with paper on the back, as if somsone was collecting them. Is there anything special about 1976 pennies with no mint marks? Hmm. Probably not, but just checking before I take them to coinstar. $3.50 in pennies for 50 cents, that's a "win" right there regardless...   12-30-2008, 04:54 PM   #2 (permalink) FreakyGarrettC Wise young snail     Join Date: Oct 2008 Location: im in ur fridge eatin ur foodz Posts: 2,976 My Mood: Now I need to buy a envelope full of 700 bucks for 100. lol __________________ New coin forum!

Hmm. It means they were minted at Philly - Philly cents don't have mint marks. __________________ knowledge ..... share it   01-04-2009, 06:38 PM   #4 (permalink) Moustan Member   Join Date: Apr 2007 Location: Glasgow en Ecosse Posts: 80 My Mood: What does a D underneath the date stand for? I'd assume Denver or Detroit (the only large american places with D that I know) but my knowledge on US coinage is non-existant unfortunately.   01-05-2009, 01:10 AM   #5 (permalink) tonylynch RMO Collector     Join Date: Feb 2005 Location: West Texas Posts: 332 Quote: Originally Posted by Moustan What does a D underneath the date stand for? I'd assume Denver or Detroit (the only large american places with D that I know) but my knowledge on US coinage is non-existant unfortunately. D is for Denver. Also, S for San Francisco (Currently for Proofs, though prior to 1975 it produced circulating coinage). __________________ Tony Lynch ANA #R-3121787 WINS#594 MSgt, USAF (Ret) Profanity is the linguistic crutch of the inarticulate.   Bookmarks Digg del.icio.us StumbleUpon Google Would you like to support CoinTalk?
