<p>[QUOTE="desertgem, post: 3566020, member: 15199"]Long ago, some mint marks were fraudulently added to Phila. coins that did not have one, such as an S to a 1909VDB. The skill was to drill a small whole in the edge and drill to location under where a mm normally was, and raise the letter by pushing it up from beneath and then close the hole. Maybe this was a beginner, but why start on a 1936? Or it may not be such at all , but it popped in my mind when I saw the photo. </p><p>Jim[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
