I looks different than the other 1960's I have and from all I have read I believe this is the small date. Do you concur?

Comparing yours to pictures from this site:

I think it's a small date. The tip of your 6 looks rounded. And the tip of the 6 doesn't extend past the rounded end.

I concur with arthrene. The pic is taken at a slight angle but I like the looks of the 6. Especially the tail end of the six stops short.

Another vote for the 6 in the date, small.

The numerals are thicker, it's a small date. The numerals are a bit thinner on the large dates. Plus, all the hubbub about the 6 ;)

Did everyone note the doubling of the numerals. I think that is what is causing the hesitation to call it a small date.
