Long tails on the 9&6 are large dates. The Small dates have something on the '6' that is the big clue for these:

Note the circle? All the small dates have the engraving mark on it. (look for that)

The small date is worth more than the large date, sorry.

And I agree, your photographs are fine. You'll get better the more you do. I'd recommend not holding your coins to photograph them. Lay them flat on a hard surface and photograph them from overhead, being mindful of the light source. Diffused light (think a sheet of paper in front of your light source) works well, even better is daylight.

Only on the Philadelphia small dates. The Denver small dates are about half of the small and large dates. So they are common.
