Re: Business Strike 1982 S Large Date brass Lincoln Penny
This is not an S it's an altered D mint mark and altered after mint.

Re: Business Strike 1982 S Large Date brass Lincoln Penny
This looks like the MMS-012 (Extended Serifs) in the images you have posted....
It's not uncommon to find "Proof Coinage" that HAS NOT been well taken care of…
Found in circulation, possibly in a old penny jar, etc.

I don't agree, unless the images are just that bad, this doesn't look like an impaired proof.

Re: Business Strike 1982 S Large Date brass Lincoln Penny
To me the OP's mint mark doesn't look like the MMS-012 from CONECA image you posted. It's not the same, the OP's it hooved in the middle, looks altered or something.

Re: Business Strike 1982 S Large Date brass Lincoln Penny
What is the consensus- is it an altered mint mark or something else
that S looks pretty normal to me, but I am no expert?
