Yeah I would just to get some further insight on manufacturing. The employee had to be pretty good not to ruin the side by writing on the data portion of the disc. Attached is a photo of the mint marks on Purple Rain (1984) [11398LV] that I just updated. They are backwards on the disc since they were written on the inside, so I take a photo and flip it. This Purple Rain release comes right after The Rolling Stones: Video Rewind (1984) [ML1016].

rein-o wrote: I know it would be possible but is it easy or worth it to have a checkbox to select if the mint marks are hand scratched?? Well, It adds nothing to the contents and doesn't make a pressing different from another one. It just means it's probably a very, very old pressing. I keep the comments for completion and also the "on the outer ring of the disc" location to avoid updates telling there are no mint marks when in fact they're just not in the usual location: near the label.
