Fuzzy317 Moderator United States 14463 Posts	Posted 05/07/2016 10:42 pm here is an excellent reference: http://www.lincolncentresource.com/...alldate.html Notice how on small date the inner loop of the 9 is much finer and pointing above the bottom of the 7. And on large date (like these) the inner loop is still full thickness and it points to the bottom of the 7 Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 05/08/2016 01:26 am I thought of a new way to tell if it is large or small date (besides all the others I've mentioned) Report this Post to the Staff

Halo1st Pillar of the Community United States 2775 Posts	Posted 05/08/2016 2:52 pm LD's. Was curious if either show signs of the Memorials floating roof? Thanks, Doug. Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 05/08/2016 3:15 pm Floating roofs can occur on any 1957-2008 cent. If they are over polished to remove the die clashing, those areas will eventually affected as the lines for the lower part of the bust radiate through those areas as well as the dates.

Halo1st Pillar of the Community United States 2775 Posts	Posted 05/08/2016 3:40 pm Except the years mentioned (typo) with coop. 1959 - 2008 potentially could show the die wear creating a raised or floating roof. But 1969 and 1970 seem to be the two years most noted for it. Thanks, Doug. Report this Post to the Staff
