<p>[QUOTE="Hobo, post: 455644, member: 11521"]Mintmarks are no longer punched period. Not by hand. Not by machine. Mintmarks are now made a part of the Master Hub (raised just like on a coin). When Master Dies are made from the Master Hub the mintmark is pressed into the Master Die (along with all other raised details). Working Hubs and Working Dies are then made from the Master Dies. The mintmark will be identical on every Working Die (excepting variations like die doubling).[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
