🔍 How to Spot the $3,500 No-S Proof Penny (Step-by-Step)
1. Find a 1990 Proof Penny

- Cameo contrast between fields and design
2. Check for the MISSING “S” Mintmark
👉 Look below the date – Should be blank (no “S”)
👉 Compare to a normal 1990-S Proof – Side-by-side is key!
3. Verify It’s Not a Fake
✔ Weight: 2.5 grams (same as normal penny)
✔ Edge: Smooth (no reeds)
✔ Surface: No signs of alteration
(Pro Tip: Use a 10x loupe to inspect the mintmark area!)
