<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Fallguy, post: 2669843, member: 84739&quot;]From the research I&#039;ve done, it looks like the last year that mint marks were hand punched into Lincoln Cent dies was 1989. Without hand punching, an OMM would be impossible unless a coin was first stamped at say the San Francisco Mint, then taken to the Denver Mint, perfectly align the detail and then re-stamped. I guess one could take a working die from the Denver Mint, install it at the Frisco Mint and re-stamp a coin that had been already struck with the &quot;S&quot; mint mark die. Sorry, can&#039;t think of anything else. Semper Fidelis[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
