Pherphy New Member United States 24 Posts	Posted 09/08/2018 11:18 pm I got a few roll of pennies today and came across this one 1982 D small date penny. I was reading about it and apparently only one has been found in 2016. I just wanted to ask if maybe I found another one or am I just going crazy. Report this Post to the Staff

Pherphy New Member United States 24 Posts	Posted 09/09/2018 12:16 am Good link Errers and Varieties. That explained it the best I have seen. The site I looked at was talking about if the tops of the numbers in the date look flush it is a small date and if the 98 is raised higher then it's a large date. On this coin the numbers appeared all flush at the top to me and I got all excited. Report this Post to the Staff
spru Bedrock of the Community United States 12477 Posts	Posted 09/09/2018 03:18 am Yeah, the only thing you need to look at is the 2. The styles between LD and SD are very different and consistently so. I agree that yours is a Large Date.

John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 09/09/2018 05:14 am I always look at the 8. Small date has a smaller top and the large date has almost the same size as the bottom. Think how a snowman looks,small head on top of a larger bottom. John1 Report this Post to the Staff
