"The U S Mint" does not actually mint coins. The "mints" are work shops for what we call the U S Mint . And, they mark their products with W, P, D...

Did you pull out the plastic inserts that protect the coins before you photographed them? It does make a difference. I can't really tell from the...
@paddyman98 Is that display to show that people are throwing away the coins they find that are mint errors? I hope you realize that I jest. After...
