Just a straight-on shot of the obverse, please. Looks like a large date, especially in pic 3.

Sometimes taking a pic from a different angle can achieve clearer results but I will take up photography hopefully in the near future just to keep you guys happy :)

It's a large date. Not even a fraction of a percent chance. Shape of the 2 is wrong for the small date, and more importantly, devices on IGWT are way too thick.

In my previous post before this one ... can you see the shape of the two (2) and how the smaller (8) is raised a lil ... that tells me it's more of a small date than a LARGE date...

But don't worry people I am Not a hundred percent convinced myself

Many Thanks

All Good guys I agree it's a large Date ....
I think the (2) had been in an accident and it managed to fool me for the last 7 hours.

Thank You ALL.

It is the small gap from the tail to the rim that tells it is a large date. Too bad too, I was rooting for you on this..

I agree, Large Date Cent. The 2 has taken damaged from a hit.
