[QUOTE="Bones-65, post: 8267420, member: 136030"]Actually that there is a bit of a misunderstanding with the 22 NO D. True, the Denver mint was the only mint that produced the US cent that year! Its a bit false in that some were produced with out a mint, it wasn't actually a mistake. The mint had major issues with the die/dies for the obverse of the coin. So, that's why the poor details of so many of the 22 D's. None was struck without the D, its just that the details of the obverse was so bad the D didn't leave enough detail to be seen at all. For me, this is a coin that's controversial in its not really an error, it didn't miss getting struct with the mint mark. So, the No "D" really means that you can't see any traces of it. Maybe someday I might add one to my collection, but its not of high interest to me for sure. Of course, others feel differently about that and PAY big dollars for them.[/QUOTE]
