The "S" and "D" are called mint marks. They tell us where the coin was minted. San Francisco and Denver are the locations of the U.S. Mints, along with Philadelphia. Philadelphia has no mint mark to identify it. Can you guess which of the mints is identified by the S and which by the D?

What is difference between an s subshell and a d subshell orbital?
The primary difference between an s subshell and a d subshell orbital is their shape and orientation. S subshell orbitals are spherical in shape and are found at the nucleus, while d subshell orbitals have cloverleaf or butterfly shapes and are oriented along axes passing through the nucleus.
