Mint mark?

Is this possibly a D over S? Or just wishful thinking?

Looks like a D that took a circulation hit.

 

Not a D/S just damage.

 

Yep, that's one trashed surface. It's no surprise the ridiculously tiny mintmark got deformed as well.

 

A hit on the right spot can change a coin tremendously

 

It looks more like an S over a D but it's really just a damaged mintmark. The D mintmark took a hit.

 

The era of RPMs ceased in 1989 when the U. S. Mint began placing the mint mark on the master die instead of punching the mintmark into the working die. referred to as the secondary mint mark. The secondary mintmark can also be rotated, instead of offset.

 

Never mind. I misread the date.
