    Has anyone ever seen this style of mm on a 47 S Lincoln? C:WINDOWSTempA907 - 20220330_171825.jpg C:WINDOWSTempA905 - 20220330_171501.jpg C:WINDOWSTempA906 - 20220330_171521.jpg


    Does the 47 S have an inverted S?

    I think the mintmark on the '47 was impacted with a bit of "Die Fill".

    Yours shows more of the flat trumpet tail look but still weak like the inverted S of 46.
    Maybe the die was a little tilted or the S was partially polished away.
    Looks like the MM-007
