<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dimeguy, post: 4530368, member: 19855&quot;]I will admit, I also do not exactly know how to spot the &quot;small D&quot; variety. If I would wager a guess, it would be to see the opening of the D and tails at either end, but again, just a guess. I do know of the 1928 S, 1941 S and 1945 S varieties, and have them, but have not heard of the &#039;29 D small D Mercs. I do not think there is much of a market for it because it is difficult to ascertain. What one may see as small, other may determine to be large. It is easy to see a difference in size by the S, even seeing trumpet tails, but D can be difficult to tell difference between sizes, wear, smudging during minting, etc. and the effort to place in mint mark size determination does not pay off in the market, so in a sense, why bother? Either way, I would be interested in learning more of the mint mark variety if any other members have some insight.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
