I was thinking that to but it being raised had me confused

 

Yeah, almost nicely centered, too, but definitely not a real S mint mark.

That coin has seen a long and hard life. Many dents and dings have been affected to this coin and I believe that’s where the “raised look” came from.

Well time to put this old fella away then lol

 

The wear and pitting makes this look like an S but it's a Philly with a lot of wear.
