Best Answer

No. Silver dollars minted at Philadelphia did not carry mint marks.

Mint mark positions are:

Seated Liberty dollars - under the eagle

Morgan dollars - above the DO in DOLLAR

Peace dollars - between the word ONE and the eagle's tail feathers.

Mint mark letters are:

blank = Philadelphia

D = Denver

S = San Francisco

O = New Orleans

CC = Carson City

Dollars weren't minted every year at every mint, so there are many gaps in the series.

Why don't 1965 coins have mint marks?

The US suspended the use of mint marks on all coins dated 1965-67. The mints were operating 24/7 making new clad coins to replace all of the silver dimes, quarters, and half dollars that were being pulled from circulation and melted. Somehow politicians concluded that those coins were being withdrawn by coin collectors rather than metal speculators, and removed mint marks as a way to reduce coins' appeal to collectors. Needless to say hoarding continued and by 1968 mint marks were restored. Also please be careful to note that coins minted at Philadelphia prior to 1980 (before 1979 for dollars) don't carry mint marks so not finding a P is perfectly normal.

Do all s mint marks have silver in them?

No. If you're referring to proof coins 1968-present, no cent or nickels have any silver. Then with dimes, quarters, and half dollars, look at the edge of the coin. A copper/nickel clad proof coin will show a ring of copper, same as any P or D versions. A silver proof won't have that, and it will also be heavier. Meanwhile, all dimes, quarters, halves, and dollars before 1965 contain silver, for all mint marks.

Where do you find the mint marker on an 1856 dollar coin?

It's called a mint MARK, not a mint "marker", and is a small letter indicating the location of the mint where the coin was struck. However, all 1856 silver dollars were minted at Philadelphia, which did not use the P mint mark in those days, so there will not be any 1856 dollars with mint marks. Other dates of Liberty Seated dollars may have a small S (San Francisco) or O (New Orleans) located below the eagle on the back of the coin. You can find a list of mint marks and positions for all circulating U.S. coins at www.coinfacts.com.
