Lafaa, that's what I was thinking, the seven seems lower, but does the s lookikng bolder or the other s being so close to the date mean anything?

In this case, I believe Laafa is correct. They both appear to be Large Date, or "Low 7." Also "Liberty" appears to be too strong for a Small Date, although it may be weak on a Large Date also. I have not seen any information (yet) regarding the position of the MM. The lower end of the 9 does not apear to curve upward enough for a Small Date as well.

thanks for the info, that S mark looks fishy to me though, I dont think I've ever seen it that close to a # before.

can anyone help me reading the penny lookup link? http://www.pcgs.com/prices/PriceGui...Lincoln+Centwhat do the grades mean? is it, the higher the number. the better condition the penny is in? and what do theose initials mean, like "D/S" double stamp?

going through the dates, it seems like the only pennies that may be worth a little more than normal are the 1970-s, is that an accurate assumption, not really sure how to read that chart though.
