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.
The mint mark (if it has one) on all Morgan silver dollars is on the reverse of the coin just above the letters "DO" in dollar.
The mint mark position on all Morgan dollars is the same, above the DO in DOLLAR on the back. Possible mint marks for Morgans are: No mint mark = Philadelphia D = Denver (1921 only) S = San Francisco O = New Orleans CC = Carson City
The mint mark location for all Peace dollars, regardless of year, is between the eagle's tail feathers and the word ONE. blank = Philadelphia (most Phila coins did not have mint marks until 1980) D = Denver S = San Francisco
1964 all us coins stopped being produced with silver.
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 Somehow politicians concluded that those coins were being withdrawn by coin collectors rather than metal speculators, and removed mint marks as a way to reduce coins' appeal to collectors.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.
None of them will have mint marks.
The mint mark position on all Peace dollars is near the word ONE on the back. No mint mark = Philadelphia D = Denver S = San Francisco
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.
Yes, all the silver war nickels have mint marks, even Philadelphia. There will be a large letter P, D, or S above Monticello.
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.

It was minted in Philadelphia. Prior to 1980, nearly all coins made in Philadelphia didn't carry mint marks. The only exceptions were nickels from 1942-45 and 1979 dollars.
The "Crown" and the "Castle" are two of many mint marks types indicating where the item was made or minted. The Mint Marks are many and varied. There are at least three different "Castle" mint marks and two different "Crown" mint marks. Other mint mint marks include crosses, stars, flowers, moons, keys, animals, etc. all of which have many variations, and these are only the British marks.
The mint mark (if it has one) on all Morgan silver dollars is on the reverse of the coin just above the letters "DO" in dollar.
The Eisenhower dollars made for everyday use do NOT have any silver in them regardless of date or mintmark. ONLY special collectors coins sold from the Mint were struck in 40% silver and were not released for circulation by the US Mint.
The mint mark position on all Morgan dollars is the same, above the DO in DOLLAR on the back. Possible mint marks for Morgans are: No mint mark = Philadelphia D = Denver (1921 only) S = San Francisco O = New Orleans CC = Carson City
Yes they are, all "S" Mint 1971 & 1972 Eisenhower dollars are 40% silver, but ONLY for those two years. In 1973 the Mint added copper-nickel clad "S" Mint coins along with the 40% "S" Mint silver coins
The mint mark location for all Peace dollars, regardless of year, is between the eagle's tail feathers and the word ONE. blank = Philadelphia (most Phila coins did not have mint marks until 1980) D = Denver S = San Francisco
