[QUOTE="yakpoo, post: 4709998, member: 18157"]Denver had the newest presses and produced the sharpest strikes at the time. Perhaps that could add to the confusion. This was a very interesting period in U.S. Mint history. Circulation grade coins were minted in both Philadelphia and Denver, but without mint marks...to thwart us evil coin collectors! Additionally, 90% silver coins dated "1964" were minted all the way up to April of 1966...to create the "appearance" that people weren't hoarding silver. :D[/QUOTE]
