<p>[QUOTE=&quot;cladking, post: 8359081, member: 68&quot;]Sometimes coins made at other mints don&#039;t use a mint mark at all so they can be mistaken for Phillys.&nbsp; All the &#039;65 to &#039;67 half dollars were made at Denver for circulation but most think they are Philly issues or mixed.&nbsp; San Francisco made the SMS and probably used retired SMS dies to make coins for circulation.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Many times dies for other mints are produced with mint marks at Philly.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>&#039;69-S cents were all made at San Francisco for circulation, mint sets, and proof sets.&nbsp; No other cents are known to have been made there that year.&nbsp; The mint set coins were&nbsp; shipped for inclusion in the blue packet.&nbsp; The little blue token specifically says that coins (cents and nickels) made at San Francisco are included in the set.&nbsp; The red packet coins were all made in Denver and have the mint mark.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>There are no OMM&#039;s and relatively few RPM&#039;s in modern coins and even fewer in the mint sets.&nbsp; Ironically the finest of all modern RPM&#039;s appears n about 5.5% of the &#039;69 mint sets on the Denver dime.&nbsp; The vertical part of the &quot;D&quot; appears above the MM a little to the right.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
