1982 No Mint Mark Roosevelt Dime

Heritage Auction Galleries

At the point in time that the United States Mint made these coins, the coin dies sent to the individual branch mints would be punched with the proper mint mark letter for that branch before shipping. This variety is believed to be caused because one or more non-punched dies were used to make coins.

The letter "P" was being used for coins made at the Philadelphia facility, "D" for Denver minted coins, and "S" on dimes minted in San Francisco. Therefore, all coins should have a mintmark. Since this coin has no mint mark, it is moderately valuable. Beware of altered coins that may have had the mint mark removed by an unscrupulous person.
