1979 Susan B Anthony Mint Marks

rooksmith · March 18, 2025 11:36AM

I have 2 79 Susies here - I would like to get an opinion on the mint marks:

Coin #1 (1979 D ?)

Close up of mint mark:

"---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------"

Coin #2 (1977 S? Blob?)

Close up of mint mark:

Is that a possible Type 1 S ??

Thanks

The Type 1 and 2 usually refer to proofs. Here are all the styles used from San Francisco. It does not really matter on circulated stuff.

The 79 Anthony BLOB mint mark? I guess I will have to sell it on EBay for $10,000 to find out if its a real blob or not.

The best source is Daniel at Portsmouth Coin Shop in Ohio.
