Thank you Rayof315. That nine stood out
with me right away making me think large date
when I was comparing it to some of the other coins, but when I lined up the 7 and the 0 and
then compared the e and the y in Liberty then
It threw doubt in my mind. I would love to know
for sure or maybe it's just me hoping it to be a
Small date that I'm not seeing it.

What I do in a case like this is set it aside - or save it anyway. One day, if you continue in the hobby, you ll run across it again and say to yourself: How did I ever think that could be a small date?

Great pictures from the OP. I suggest looking at them and remembering how pointed the lower loop of the 9 is.Also the upper loop of the 9 is blunt or not pointed. This coin is clearly a Large date from one PUP. The fact the top loop on the 9 is NOT pointed like the lower loop on the 9 means it is clearly a Large dated Cent, IF your coin has both ends of the nine pointed like the lower end of the 9 in your pictures, Bingo, that fact alone means the coin is clearly a small dated Cent. After much, much research on this type coin, I found this fact to be true. NO ONE previously pointed this simple PUP out prior to my stating so on this site. I saw this same question come up actually hundreds of times and decided to research the level top of the numbers, the low 7 , etc. I even contacted a "Cent Specialist " here on this site in a private message about my findings and was told, " there are already too many PUP'S for this coin." I do not attend this site as I use to but guess what question still comes up time and time again...... Be Well my fellow coin collecting passionate friends............. Study my findings against your coins, You too will find the facts are true.
