nickelsearcher Moderator United States 15459 Posts	Posted 01/16/2014 8:18 pm Agreed that the first photo shows a true 1970-S LMC small date ... however the 3rd photo is a large date. Assume your coin is the initial photo. If so ... congratulations. David Take a look at my other hobby ... http://www.jk-dk.art Report this Post to the Staff

lknerr Valued Member United States 167 Posts	Posted 01/16/2014 11:59 pm Nice find. I've also got one.. I'm just need a 1970 S small date Proof. Report this Post to the Staff
rupester Pillar of the Community United States 1300 Posts	Posted 01/17/2014 11:19 pm Iknerr, yes indeed!! I will hopefully find a complete 1970 s proof set some day!! I still love to search for them!! But its my first one and so I took that mint set and my large date mint set and sealed them together in a cello holder until some other day, I took a usmint "penny" token out of a 90's mint set and it filled the slot in my dansco lincoln until the day I find or buy a second. That coin will hold the spot!! I'm still excited I have one!! Report this Post to the Staff
