I noticed there are different types of this coin. A large date, a small date, and some other type of over-date. Which one is this? I tried Googling it and can't seem to find anything besides a list of varieties for the coin. It is beat-up, I picked it out of a $10 large cent bulk box because I don't see this date often.

Small Date.
The numbers run in a straight line. Large date the numbers follow the curve of the coin.

Just looks banged up and like someone took a pair of pliers to it or something.
