1970-S-Lincoln-Memorial-Penny-Large-Or-Small-Date?

I recently purchased a shotgun roll of 1970 pennies. Out of the 50 coins, 16 of them were 1970 with an "s" mint mark. I have my ideas on which of them are small date but wanted to get the opinion of others with more experience and a fresh set of eyes to double check the alignment of the numbers. I have each numbered so if you could help me out and tell me what your opinions are, I would greatly appreciate it!

You have a lot of coins showing for one post. They may ask for less, may be two tops but usually one per post.You can make multiple posts. Dont have to kram all in one. The experts will get back to you. Should show full coin for the good folks here.
Like too to see the word liberty; a full pic would be appreciated. Thanks

I see one I think Reno 911 is correct with there statement 1 coin 1 thread and full picture of obverse and reverse. That said some of these look like proofs but I think number 15 maybe a small date but full picture is needed

Instead of posting all those pictures, how about I show you how to tell the difference
yourself and then you will know the next time one comes up.
This photo is readily available in the Search forum at the top of the side bar.
Just look at the top of the seven in relation to the other numbers.

I don't really believe you are going to find many folks willing to study those teeny photos. It's not really possible to make out the necessary details with those partial coin shots.

How about if you select the coins you believe to be small dates and post them individually in separate threads with photos of the entire coin.

Then we would be glad to help confirm your findings.
