[QUOTE="Troodon, post: 139988, member: 4626"]"P" for Philadelphia was used on the Jefferson nickels, on the reverse abonve Monticello, from 1942 to 1945 indicated they were the silver alloy. It was used again on the obverse from 1980 to the present. It was used on Roosevelt dimes, Washington quarters, and Kennedy half dollars from 1980 to the present. It was used on Susan B. Anthony dollars from 1979 to 1999, and on Sacagawea dollars from 2000 to the present. It was used on any commemoratives minted in Philadelphia from 1983 to the present. It was used on the proof American Silver Eagles from 1993 to 2005. (note that from 2000 to the present, uncirculated American silver Eagles without a mintmark were minted in West Point, not Philadelphia.). It was used on 1/10 oz., 1/4 oz, and 1/2 oz. proof American gold Eagles from 1988 to 1993. (It was not used on the 1 oz. American gold eagle, nor on any of the American platinum Eagles).
