A mintmark is one or two small letters located on the coin that indicates where the coin was made. The location varies. From 1968 to date, coins made for everyday use have the mintmarks ( D= Denver & S= San Francisco) on the front. coins before 1968 have them on the reverse of the coins. In 1979 The "P" mintmark was used on the Susan B. Anthony dollar and all other coins starting in 1980 except the Lincoln cent. You don't say what coin you see the letters BP on. The monogram of Bela Lyon Pratt "BLP" appear in the truncation of the Quarter & Half Eagle gold coins that he designed.
