Eagle-eye cherrypicker Timothy Wissert has reported the first known mint state Sans Serif mintmark style on the 1946-S Roosevelt Dime.
The Trumpet Tail and Ball Serif mintmark styles have been known on the 1946-S dimes for years, but the Sans Serif mintmark style was thought to have been first placed on the dime in 1947. A couple of years ago Gene Bruder reported an XF specimen and not long afterward a VF specimen surfaced. Until now nothing else had been reported. If you have a specimen in your collection, let us know. Also the Ball Serif is unknown combined with the ODV-002 design.
