Went through the 70 s roll last night and found 3 small dates. Report this Post to the Staff

DVCollector Bedrock of the Community United States 10045 Posts	Posted 10/16/2009 4:39 pm Finding 3 in a roll would be a real score! Can you post larger pics to confirm? At this pic size, I'd guess the middle coin has the best odds of being a SD--but it could be all three, hard to say. Report this Post to the Staff
scmoore61 Valued Member United States 487 Posts	Posted 10/17/2009 3:47 pm not great pics but all 3 are small dates with all the markers, high 7, hooked 9 and weak liberty. Report this Post to the Staff
DVCollector Bedrock of the Community United States 10045 Posts	Posted 10/17/2009 7:01 pm Good to see bigger pics! I've enlarged a date detail of each to help in attribution. From what I can see, my bets are on #1 below (your first coin in your most recent pics). #2 is most likely a LD and #3 is definitely a LD--the shape of the 9 is conclusive even with pic size. There are different methods of attribution; I look at the shape of the 9 and the shape/position of the 7. The top line of the date is a hard determinant. I think this page covers the differences well. That's just my opinion--maybe the Lincoln experts can make a more definitive call with your pics? Btw, even finding one SD in a roll is a great pickup! You might change the title to "3 70-S small dates" to get the experts here... Edited by DVCollector 10/17/2009 7:05 pm Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 10/17/2009 10:18 pm Larger images might help with just the date area. But here is what to look for on the small & large date 1970-S Cents. 1. The line on the Center of the 9 in the date. 2. The crease on the inside of the 7 intersection. 3. The tail of the 7 lower than the 0 in the date. 4. The bottom tail of the 9. Whether pointed or blunt. The second image I would like to see closer. From what I can see it maybe a small date as well. A better image would help a lot. It could be from the dame die as # 1 as the mint mark locations look very close. I agree the # 3 is a large date. Report this Post to the Staff
