The S ( San Francisco ) mint mark means the coin is a Proof. __________________ knowledge ..... share it   07-02-2005, 11:28 AM   #3 (permalink) OldDan 共和党     Join Date: Dec 2004 Location: Wonderful Wyoming Posts: 1,131 Quote: Originally Posted by cj34 i have a vermont quarter(2001) where the mint is usually P or D is has an S does anyone know what this means? Well, it could mean "silver" , but then again I'm betting it means San Francisco, California where it was minted. __________________ Experience is something you don't get, until just after you need it.   07-05-2005, 10:49 PM   #4 (permalink) cj34 Junior Member   Join Date: Jul 2005 Posts: 2 thank you thanx for the info. this is the first proof i've seen and i work at a bank.   07-05-2005, 11:37 PM   #5 (permalink) GDJMSP Numismatist     Join Date: Nov 2002 Location: PA Posts: 24,638 Well, you don't expect to see Proof coins in a bank as they are not issued for circulation. They are sold to collectors. But every now and then one will make its way into circulation until another collector spots it - and then it's gone again. __________________ knowledge ..... share it   Bookmarks Digg del.icio.us StumbleUpon Google Would you like to support CoinTalk?
