Dearborn Moderator United States 97162 Posts	Posted 05/18/2022 08:13 am John1 is correct, top picture, left coin small date, right coin large date. Remaining larger pictures are small dates.

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 05/18/2022 12:25 pm The shape of the '2' ad the location of the '2' is what to look at on these. Note the large date looks like an upside down '7'? Small date looks different. Not just the dates are different: Location and shapes of the '2' would be your first clues.
