[QUOTE="PlanoSteve, post: 3701609, member: 91609"]Well, no...& for 2 key reasons: (1) There never was an S mint this year, so the OP's basic premise is false/unsupported. (2) This is a 59 yr old coin. In 59 yrs, the chances that every variety has been found are virtually 100% (except for the "wisher's" & "hoper's" - they always think it's possible.). Now, if this coin was only 8 or 10 yrs old, it might be in the realm of possibilities. One should really learn about what they're looking at (ie, know that an S is not possible for this year - something which could be found in a Red Book). And one must learn to discern what is probable from what is not. Otherwise, huge amounts of energy will be wasted going down a rabbit hole. I know, I know, "that's what this site is for", yada, yada, yada. I don't disagree, until the same people keep posting the same issues, albeit, with different coins. We know who's trying & learning; & who's in it for the easy way out. JMHO[/QUOTE]
