By the look of the 7 it looks low to me. I'm going with Large Date.

Large date.

Keep it as an example so you will know on the next one you see.

I've found one in over a million coins.

Toniblab, yes--a weak LIBERTY is a good marker, but I've been confused about how weak it should be?
I've also observed that the 7 and 9 have distinctly different shapes on the small date. In particular, the LD 7 has a notch that runs roughly diagonally between the inside and outside of the corner. In case anyone's curious by what I mean, Charles Daughtrey has written a good explanation here. This writeup helped me a lot!
