<p>[QUOTE=&quot;yakpoo, post: 1250338, member: 18157&quot;]Here&#039;s a thread from 2005 that touches on this subject...</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://www.cointalk.com/t5019/" class="internalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.cointalk.com/t5019/">http://www.cointalk.com/t5019/</a></p><p><br /></p><p>In the response, <b>cdb1950 </b>talks about the Mint Marks being hand punched prior to 1982 and mentions that the Mint went from punching the mint marks to placing them on the hub after that. I recall reading an article (in Coin World I believe) that talked about these mint marks braking free and producing dies with rogue mint marks. These errors are normally caught before any coins are actually produced.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m trying to recall an article I &quot;may have read&quot; about a class of coins I don&#039;t collect...so I could be completely wrong. I&#039;m just saying, don&#039;t spend your coin just yet. I&#039;ll go through my old magazines and see if I can find the article. </p><p><br /></p><p>When it comes to Coin Talk&#039;s &quot;PMD Parrots&quot;...trust, but verify.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
