    i am collecting circulated national park quarters. I recently came across a 2013 New Hampshire "S" mint mark.

    It's the first "S" I've come across. There isn't even a spot to put it in my collecting book.

    Is this an error? Rare?

    Thanks for any info.

    There is an S mint that is a proof, so someone took it out of a set and spent it.
    There is also an S mint that is a silver proof. Which would have more value.
    As was pointed out to me there are also S business strikes.

    Thanks for the info.

    How would I know if it's a proof or silver proof?

    Is this true with every state, every year?

    As was pointed out to me there are also regular S mints ( business strikes)
    That are not proofs.

    Yes you are right I misread the coin listing.
    1. There are S business strikes
    2. S proofs
    3. and S silver proofs.

    I have been through many,many THOUSANDS of parks (and states) quarters and have never gotten an S mint.
