pennie help?

In the mid-60's the US mint took the mint mark off many coins as they blamed coin collectors ::) for all of the silver disappearing from circulation. They thought that doing that would mean less coins would be hoarded. So your cents for 1965, 1966, and 1967 do not carry a mint mark, even though they were made at various mints. They resumed the cent mint mark in 1968 with D for the Denver mint and S for San Francisco.

Happy Hunting,
