with where the inner loop of the 9 is pointing and the top of the 7 being below the 9 and 0, looks like large date

Yup, this is the counter-intuitive one. The 7 looks small compared to the rest but, that's what makes it a Large Date. The best reference image I have found is this from PCGS:


1970-S-Large-Or-Small-Date?

The position of the 7 relative to the other numbers is the key.

The inside tail of the 9 on a large date will point to the S on a small date it will point to the 7
