<p>[QUOTE="Conder101, post: 1107580, member: 66"]You can't compare them to the 1980 dimes. Back in 1980 the mintmarks were still punched into each die by hand so they wander all over the place. From 1990 on the mintmark is in the master hub and is in the exact same place on all the dies for that year. It is possible for the mintmark to wander a bit from one year to the next since they now create a new master hub each year, but all the coins of a given year will have the mintmark in the same place.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
