I'm not an experienced collector ive just collected pocket change and random coins since I was a kid. So my apologies for the repetitive subject but if someone could help me id appreciate it Thank you There is 4 seperate coins Report this Post to the Staff

wrongnumber Pillar of the Community United States 559 Posts	Posted 03/07/2019 5:54 pm Those are all large dates. The small date version: the bottom of the 7 is even with the 0 & the inner hook of the nine points east towards the 7 instead of down at the mint mark. You could put a business card across the top of the date & see the 7 sits lower. Hope that helps! Google image small date large date for good comparisons ;) Report this Post to the Staff

just carl Bedrock of the Community United States 20753 Posts	Posted 03/09/2019 06:40 am I really hate that coin. I mean it is so slight of a difference, I've always wondered who has the time to look for stuff like that. Report this Post to the Staff
chafemasterj Pillar of the Community United States 6514 Posts	Posted 03/09/2019 08:53 am For years I agree justcarl. One day something just clicked with me. The direction of the 9 does it for me.
