[QUOTE="GeorgeM, post: 1344646, member: 28550"]Yesterday I picked up an 1871 10 Centavo (it has a repunched 1/1 that's visible to the naked eye). The mintmark has me flummoxed though. The coin is in well circulated condition (probably an F12) and is tiny to boot, so I haven't been able to get any pictures that look better than a silver toned blur. The mintmark appears to be P_'S. I'm not having any luck finding that (or even D_S) in my limited catalogs. I found a promising link, but it didn't list any mints that seemed to fit: [URL]http://dewardt.net/dimebook/Mexico.pdf[/URL] Does anyone have a list of mints and mintages from 1871 handy (if I keep finding 19th century silver, I'm going to have to break down and get a 19th century Krause book sooner or later :) ).[/QUOTE]
