Ozzy5150 Valued Member United States 114 Posts	Posted 10/03/2022 9:51 pm Hopefully, there's an easy rule to follow for this year. I have read everything I can and I understand the difference between LG & SM. I'm running into issues when I find a coin that has a high 7 but the 0 is doubled or extended to the North slightly. Is this always a LD? Is the date fundamentally different like 1960 SM/LG. Maybe I'm getting caught up in the weeds on this one. Again, I get the difference. Is there a basic rule of thumb that always applies? Thank You *I just noticed the small date is shorter on the tail of the 9 and 7. Possibly all digits. Also seems a bit wider than LD. Is this accurate? Edited by Ozzy5150 10/03/2022 9:54 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Dearborn Bedrock of the Community United States 22229 Posts	Posted 10/03/2022 10:36 pm The shape of the 9 and where the looped end points is one way. On the left is a large date on the right is a small date. Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember.

Cujohn Pillar of the Community United States 4291 Posts	Posted 10/04/2022 01:02 am Dearborn, you might want to edit your post it's backwards. On a SD the loop on the nine points to the 7. on a LD it points to the S. Infact Dearborn I think both of yours are LD. Report this Post to the Staff
Dearborn Bedrock of the Community United States 22229 Posts	Posted 10/04/2022 08:22 am huh, I got that directly from a reference page. I may have to go back and check on the accuracy of that site.

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62063 Posts	Posted 10/04/2022 12:26 pm The lines are hiding what you need to see: Note the differences on the curl of the '9' on the small dates? Look for this shape on that area in order to be a Small date 1970-S. The lines are hiding the real story. Richard S.
