I think my posted pics "The One Coin" of 1962D LMC was a machanical error striking process cent, because a date number of "8" can be changed to "3" by human hand cutting the west side edge of "8", but it is certainly impossible to raise or to fall, to tilted or to erected the pattern of a date number by human hand.

There is a difference in the nine and the two. See 1982 small date for reference.

What you have posted are repunched mint marks. The two has more of a question mark to its look on a small date and the nine's inner loop points toward the rim or angled at a ninety degree angle. Every year in the sixties has both large and small dates. Even the 1982 has smalland large dates and most 1970's as well.

Your first coin may even be a small over large date.

There are no large and small date varieties for the 1962-D cent.

Another over polished die example:
Proof 1962 Cent:
1962-D--Lincoln-Memorial-Cent---Small-Date-Vs-Large-Date
1962-D--Lincoln-Memorial-Cent---Small-Date-Vs-Large-Date
Even the slightest hit on the ends of the '2' on the date could alter the angle. Just one size date that year. (normal)

I have found that "The Only Cent" had a vertically standing and taller "2" than "the left tilted 2" of normal cent and Mr Coop's "Proof 1962 Cent".

Well there is only one normal size for that year. All devices smaller than normal were altered by die polishings or damaged during circulation.

All of the 1962 normal cents were left tilted, except "The Only Cent" was vertically upright standing,and l think it was impossible to alter
a tilted "2" to a vertically upright "2" by circulation damage or die polishing,if so then we could find lot of such circulation "Upright 2" cent.

According to my sources, there is no 1962-D small date/large date variance. Multiple users have expressed this same fact. Sorry that your mind is not accepting opinions from multiple experts. This discussion is going no where.
