cladking Pillar of the Community United States 2271 Posts	Posted 04/04/2008 5:58 pm On mint state coins the easiest way for me is to look at the lower loop of the "9". If it points down toward the mint mark then it's the large date but if it curls up to point at the "7" then it's the small date. This doesn't work as well with the proofs since there's less difference and you need another coin to compare it to. Time don't fly, it bounds and leaps. Report this Post to the Staff
