Hi, ive used this forum for research for a while but just joined as I was hoping someone could help me. Ive read several post about small date / large date searched several images but just cant seem to figure it out. I'm not an experienced collector ive just collected pocket change and random coins since I was a kid. So my apologies for the repetitive subject but if someone could help me id appreciate it

Thank you
There is 4 seperate coins

Those are all large dates. The small date version: the bottom of the 7 is even with the 0 & the inner hook of the nine points east towards the 7 instead of down at the mint mark. You could put a business card across the top of the date & see the 7 sits lower. Hope that helps! Google image small date large date for good comparisons ;)

I really hate that coin. I mean it is so slight of a difference, I've always wondered who has the time to look for stuff like that.

For years I agree justcarl. One day something just clicked with me. The direction of the 9 does it for me.
