I have 10 circulated rolls of these. Looks like it's time to break them out.
How many 1946s inverted mint marks struck?

Yes, 3 punches. As of now, only one die was inverted and it was a ball serif. And yes you would know as the ball would be lower and the upper would have that flat spot. The inverted die BJ found just so happened to be punched at an angle to the die surface (tilted) making the ball less visible. I have pics here: http://errorvariety.com/Varieties/1946-S_IMM-001_Inverted_S.htmlThis topic is relatively new to me, so I have a few questions:
- There were total of 3 punches used in 1946: Trumpet Tail; Ball Serif; and Sans Serif...correct?
- Was there only one die known to have inverted S? and it is of the Ball Serif type?
- "Normal" is with ball serif on top, and "Inverted" is with ball serif on bottom, correct?
Thanks...Ray
