    Not an US coin, but this Australian florin was minted in San Francisco during WWII when Australia asked the US to make our coins. And after the war we had to pay back, so the silver content in our coins were reduced from 92.5% to 50% from 1946!

    There's the S mint mark above the date.

    Going way back to the beginning of the San Francisco mint:

    1854ten.jpg

    When San Francisco was a muddy streeted, with rotting ships in the bay and frequent fires burning the city down and vigilante committees were law enforcement type of frontier city. The literal Barbary Coast.

    Things were wild at the mint.
    Reverse 1 (1892-1899) in 1900
    1900-S_Type1_reverse_of_1899.JPG
    Reverse 2 (1900-1901 "thin ribbon") in 1902
    1902-S_Type2_2.jpg
    Reverse 2 again in 1904
    1904-S_Type2.jpg
    and still in 1905

    Here goes, but the only way I can do this is from my old device...the one you all think is doing the multiple posts. If it happens here, sorry...have no control...but have been using a different one for the past few days 1880-S Morgan $ - rev.jpg 1880-S Morgan $ - obv.jpg . Get a load of this LARGE 'S'..!
