[QUOTE="CamaroDMD, post: 473979, member: 5233"]It's just where the coin was made. P means Philadelphia, D means Denver and S means San Francisco. For example, pre-1965 quarters have the mint mark on the reverse below the wreath and the absence of a mark indicates P. 1965-67 had no mint marks and 1968 until now has it on the obverse just to the right of Washington's hair. Your quarters are: 1944-D 1945 (Philadelphia) 1952-D 1957-D 1976 (Philadelphia) Different coins have mint marks in different places and starting in the 1980s (I'm not exactly sure when) they started using the letter P for Philadelphia rather than not using anything. Older coins have different mint marks as well. You may see an "O" for New Orleans or a "CC" for Carson City. Older gold also has a "C" for Charlotte or a "D" for Dahlonega. Also, a "W" on newer commemorative coins indicates the West Point mint. The O, CC, D, and C mints have long stopped making coins. O stopped in 1909, CC stopped in 1893, C and D stopped in 1861.[/QUOTE]
