<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Conder101, post: 2177152, member: 66&quot;]Well since all the dies were made at Philadelphia they would have to be shipped from Philadelphia to the destination mint.&nbsp; If the dies were defective, or if Philadelphia had neglected to apply the mintmark, or in some cases dies were shipped BACK to Philadelphia for destruction.&nbsp; (Sometimes they were destroyed on site.) They were never shipped directly from one branch mint to another.&nbsp; The Exception were the CC Morgan Dollar Reverse dies that were shipped from Carson City back to Philadelphia for destruction which were instead reworked and shipped by Philadelphia to New Orleans.&nbsp; The only case I know of where dies from one branch mint were used at another one.&nbsp; But even those were not shipped directly from one branch mint to the other.&nbsp; (The other cases of overmintmarks were made at Philadelphia and shipped directly to the final mint.&nbsp; They were never at the undermintmark mint.)[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
