I am no expert but I think the 9 looks really good. How is the "LIBERTY",weak? I can never tell if the numbers line up or not so I won't comment on that one.

ill put it to you this way, you would find one in a proof or mint set before you found one in circulation.

Strangely enough, it was a fed wrapped roll, and it actually had TWO other 1970s's in it! Both Large Dates, though.

ah... so from what daviscfad said, the small date 70 was only supposed to be for minting proof cents and mint set cents. It's like a mint error, except a very small and one caused by carelessness.

I found one in a 70s date roll I purchased at a local coin show a couple of years ago. Then, about a year ago, I purchased a roll of 70s someone was selling on e-bay for $8 = shipping already in a plastic tube. 4 of the first 6 coins were small dates! I have bought a few other random rolls, in an effort to get lucky, no cigar....

This is a new one! Didnt knew those year date numbers where significant. I've got about a handfull of old 1960-70s lincoln coins, now I'll scrutinize each one. Thanks for this new info!
