DMT740 New Member United States 38 Posts	Posted 04/20/2010 10:03 pm I have been going through a box of cents and have read about the 74 large and small dates. What I can't determine is what the differences are (I have seen a couple of descriptions but not really helpful), and is it even worth finding out what they are. Is there a premium for either of them? DMT Report this Post to the Staff

Scooby Due Pillar of the Community United States 4000 Posts	Posted 04/20/2010 10:59 pm No premium for either. They are both very common, so common that they aren't even listed as separate varieties. I have to have one of each though just because I know they exist. This will help you determine the difference: http://www.thecentproject.com/sort1974.php notice the difference in the distance to the rim on the date and motto. Report this Post to the Staff
livingdinasaur Pillar of the Community United States 1571 Posts	Posted 04/21/2010 3:34 pm Yes, they have proven to be just what the words say on the reverse: ONE cent. Not really notable, other than they ARE copper, not zinc. Premium? No. I have a roll of each, and still set them aside when I find them. no reason, just a "hold-over", from my participation in the "Project". The others of the same project get set aside, as well, same reason. Dick Report this Post to the Staff
razorear Pillar of the Community United States 613 Posts	Posted 04/21/2010 7:20 pm I find it easier to look at IGWT, the lg date is almost touching the rim. The sm. date has a normal clearence from rim to motto. Report this Post to the Staff
