Thanks Overlord.........That is one place I'd never have looked. So the part of the legend seen is 'bad' of the mint name?

The only picture on the Baldwin site shows the coin RY 17 which has various symbols but it appears that only the fish (a very small part is seen) on the Obv match. All other marks seem different.
