I was wondering if this is the small Date version? Although, when I looked it up, said that Liberty would be dull and not so pronounced. But, the date seems to line up? Any help would be appreciated! Thanks.

looks like a large date. Notice how the tail of the 9 points towards the S MM and not to the center of the 7

Agree--large date. For me, the shape of the 9 is the key.

I agree with all the above, a large date. What's probably messing with your assessment, is the 7 has taken a hit at the top and makes it look higher than what it is. Look at how low the bottom of the 7 is though.

By the way, the first two pictures you posted are great. the last one: not so good - too tiny to see details.
Also sometimes it is helpful to post up a nice close-up of the areas you are concerned with. (in this case, probably not)

Dark coin, not enough light to illuminate details.

Check them with a business card on your monitor:
1970--S-Lincoln-Memorial-Cent

Note what way the inside of the '9' is pointing?

Yes LD. That is a pickup point on a SD the Y in Liberty is a weak Y. So you do have that right.
