<p>[QUOTE=&quot;crystalk64, post: 52218, member: 1873&quot;]One needs to consider the coin and date in question when considering a fake mint mark. Why would one &quot;fake&quot; a mint mark? Check your RedBook for Morgan prices and you will see which coins have extremely high value!&nbsp; Those bring on the desire to do a little counterfeiting or coin altering. Most cases, due to the tremendous lack of technology back then, involved adding a mint mark but it was simply &quot;put on&quot; the coin which was by far much easier. Also many mint marks were altered to look like another letter. Always look at key date coins from every angle, especially mint marks, as if they were added you should be able to see a crack somewhere between the field and the letter. As for your coin, looks legit to me but I don&#039;t know the date of the coin in your photo so I simply can&#039;t give you more than this.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
