Commissioners reviewed reverse designs for the four American Innovation dollars scheduled to be released in 2028 and obverse and reverse designs for the 2027 issues in the Comic Art Coin and Medal Program.
The top portion of a secondary S mintmark is clearly visible north of the primary S. This repunched mintmark was included in the Guide Book of United States Coins for the first time in the 68th edition (published 2014). Prices have risen steadily since then. It’s a popular and scarce die variety that brings strong premiums over the value of the regular 1908-S centavo.

Reverse Description
An eagle is portrayed in the center atop an American shield with 13 stars. UNITED STATES OF AMERICA is written around the periphery with the date at the bottom.
