1. Philadelphia Mint (No Mint Mark):
- Coins produced at the Philadelphia Mint during that year do not have a mint mark. The absence of a mint mark on an 1882 silver dollar indicates that it was minted in Philadelphia.
2. New Orleans Mint (O Mint Mark):
- Coins produced at the New Orleans Mint in 1882 bear the mint mark "O". The "O" mint mark is typically found on the reverse of the coin, just below the eagle's outstretched wing, slightly to the right.
It is important to note that the D mint mark was not used for 1882 silver dollars. The D mint mark was first introduced in 1893 for coins produced at the Denver Mint.
