    Cha-ching! Yet another great variety.



    Question: I have heard that the wrong punch was used on coinage in the past; a quarter mint mark punch used on a half dollar could create a "micro mint mark" variety. Was an old half dime mintmark punch found and used on the Dime to create this variety? image
