That’s how they came from the place that stamps them with the stamping machine thingy.

 

Probably by the fact you posted something - just saying! (Wow, this is fun!)

 

From Wikipedia:
As of 1937, it served as a storage facility for silver bullion and was thus nicknamed "The Fort Knox of Silver."[2] Even without United States Mint status, it produced U.S. coinage. From 1974[5]through 1986, the West Point Mint produced Lincoln cents bearing no mint mark, making them indistinguishable from those produced at the Philadelphia Mint.[3] The years 1977 to 1979 saw Bicentennial quarters and Washington quarters produced as well.[4] Approximately 20 billion dollars' worth of gold was stored in its vaults in the early 1980s (although this was still significantly less than at Fort Knox).

September 1983 saw the first appearance of the "W" mint mark (from this still unofficial U.S. Mint) on a $10 gold coin commemorating the 1984 Los Angeles Olympic Games.[6] This was the first legal tender U.S. gold coin since 1933. In 1986, American Gold Eagle bullion coins were solely produced at this facility, again with no mint mark. The West Point Bullion Depository was granted mint status on March 31, 1988

 

But you have intentionally left out the powers of magical pocket mice and/or magical thinking.

 

Don’t forget someone’s all seeing eye!

 

I think OP is on a mission to become the largest time-sink in cointalk history. He still has quite a way to go to beat raretim. Although, I did see him pricing grading submissions in one photo.... so, he's on the right track.

ie... this all feels very familiar.

 

I've always liked all seeing eyes, but age does have its ravages. All-seeing, as long as I can back off a bit.

 

With these you can hold the coin even farther away from your old eyes. Or just go get a new prescription. Lol. Reed

 

I hope you realize the all-seeing eye is NOT allowed to blink. Frequent spritzes of Visine are used instead.

 

Extra non blinking eyes DUH.

 

It's the Eye of Providence, after all, not the Eye of Newport.

 

Rhode-eye-land?

 

See? You're starting to put the pieces together ...

 

Eye eye Kurt!

 

Here's the one of Newport: https://www.oldnewporteye.com/eye-care-articles.html

 

More like the eye of the hurricane!

 

Eye carramba!!
