It's essential to have it in the title. * Hey everyone, back with a few coins. Food city, Sierra Vista, AZ change from my veggies. 1970s small date I believe and a 62d. See what ya`ll think. Oh, and is the 70s a floating roof? And maybe doubling on the 62d pillars or are they the back pillars? Thanks in advance. Report this Post to the Staff

FsdWarp10 Pillar of the Community United States 677 Posts	Posted 06/26/2025 11:29 pm The 1970S is a large date. I have been looking for a small date and have yet to find one. The best way I have found for me to identify the small date is to look where the curl in the 9 is pointing. If it is pointing towards the mint mark then it is a large date. If it is pointing at the 7 then it is a small date. Looking only at the high and low 7 will make you blind, and it's very hard to tell. Report this Post to the Staff

Bestjet Valued Member United States 271 Posts	Posted 06/27/2025 4:35 pm Sorry for the dual post, I will not do that again. And thank you Dearborn for the verification of the 62d. . Thanks all for the info on the 70s. I thought the top of the 7 being lvl with the others meant small. Now I know better. Report this Post to the Staff
Marv65 Bedrock of the Community United States 10529 Posts	Posted 06/27/2025 4:37 pm 62-D is not doubled pillars. It is the design. If you notice, the "doubling" is actually the opening of the monument.......... Report this Post to the Staff
nickelsearcher Moderator United States 15428 Posts	Posted 06/27/2025 7:22 pm Agreed with the comments above. Quote: Food city, Sierra Vista, AZ I graduated from Buena High School in Sierra Vista many more years ago that I care to mention. Just say over 45 years ago for perspective Even back then we changed the name of the main drag from Fry Blvd to French Fry Blvd I assume it's still the same from the main gate of Ft. Huachuca through town? Take a look at my other hobby ... http://www.jk-dk.art Report this Post to the Staff
Bestjet Valued Member United States 271 Posts	Posted 06/28/2025 01:47 am Yes it is nickelsearcher. But now it's all been all redone. Gentrification I believe it's called. A lot bigger than it was 45 yrs ago for sure. We live about 20 mins north out by the San Pedro river and about 10 mins from Tombstone. We've got a 130 acre piece of land out here so we only shop there. Sometimes In Benson and Tucson. I did my high school yrs in Tucson at Santa Rita high school in the 70's. Been here about 7 yrs now. And thanks Marve65, I see that now. Report this Post to the Staff
