I don't think it is but it looks different from my other 70 s cents so I figured I would ask the experts.

I'm not an expert, but I'm pretty certain that's a LD.

I agree that it is a LD. Ken Potter's site shows the comparison very well. I find that using the inner loop of the 9 a better way then trying to decide if it is level or not from a photo. If the end of the loop points to the mm it is a LD, if it bends more and points to the 7 it is a SD.

I always look at the tops of the 9 and 0. The 7 always looks small and lower in comparison.

Thanks for all of the input folks. I still think I would misidentify this variety. Hopefully, it is so scarce I never will have to recognize it. LOL
