Message:: [QUOTE="Searcher64, post: 1940545, member: 21828"]What "S" you have is a "Knob Tail" mint mark. According to the "S" mint marks, compiled by Bill Fivaz, on Mercury dimes and other coins of this era. Since, the mint marks were installed by hand, all will not be the same. This "S" is more common on 1944s dimes. The same mint mark are common on 1946s cents, and rare on 1944s cents. The most Ex-Rare mint mark, is 1943s 10c "Trumpet Tail", the same was usded on 1941s & 1944s 25c. The Ex-Rare dime, is the 1946s 10c Sans Serif style "S". Now, for a real rare dime find [besides a 1916d or a 1894s] is a 1945 FSB in ms70. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />-D)[/QUOTE]
