Hello I have a 1922 D Lincoln cent with a very weak D mint mark. This obviously wouldn't be worth as much as a 1922 no mint mark but does this weakness affect the value? Thanks
It is a weak D. Nice coin. Maybe VF20. Do an eBay search for completed sales of Fine and VF weak D 1922's and that will give you an idea of value.
I can not tell from the photographs, but a grader could. It appears there is a round area of a different color and possible depth that looks like rouge might have been used on a rubber eraser end of a pencil or cone to reduce the height of the 'D'. Jim
It's definitely a weak D. There are other diagnostics to determine which of the four die type categories this coin may fall into. Here's the link to the different varieties in case you don't have it. http://www.lincolncentresource.com/1922Ddievarieties.html
