It's actually the "S" mintmark that can be large or small. I don't have a photo reference for this one.

Small date.

The tail of the large S trumpet style points the opposite direction, that is the easy give away.

@mycrob: Large S is the more valuable one and also appears on dimes, quarters and halves in 1928.

This is a small S - the more common one.
