The "large" and "small" refers to the date, not the mint mark.

Notice the black lines in the photo you included.

That being said, I believe that you have a large date.

This page goes over the large and small dates: http://www.lincolncentsonline.com/l...lldates.html
Pay close attention to the direction the tail of the 9 points on the 1970 S cents. There are other years that have large and small date varieties as well. 1960, 1974, and 1982.
