i am just asking because I am no where near an expert at spotting these. but this looks like the large date to me. the 9 doesn't curl enough, or am I wrong?

that's what I was thinking, but bids are at 45 dollars already. he has sold other advertised as a small date too and they all look the same.
any experts think this is the small date?

seller quote: "I am not sure please check before you buy, there is no return, whatever the result the starting bid is low, so please do your home work. I am not a coin expert, so please make your own judgement and do your research to be sure of what you are buying."

that's what I would write as well if I were selling a large date advertised as a small date.

Sent the seller an email telling him it is a large date...didn't scold, just told him he was OK except for Title listing as a "Small Date"...we'll see what happens.If he doesn't respond, I'll report it.

i think he knows and is trying to get suckers. by his no return policy and the fact that he says he is no expert and you should do your own research before buying. and he's sold these before. sounds like he is good at selling "fakes".

Its the same thing with sellers on ebay trying to sell 1981-S clear. They do not call it type 2 as it is clearly a type 1. People are buying these and if it was type 2 it would be at least $50. ebay is a good place to buy, but be careful and watch out for the sharks. Coins like this should be bought from dealers where you can inspect the coin yourself before you buy.

i just bought one for a great price in great condition, the small date... but it was a seller with 100% feedback and lots of sales. and they accept returns. thats what I look for.

Look at all those bids--on something worth a cent.

This guy is blatently trying to rip people off by playing dumb and saying "you decide - no returns". What a scam.

It's the typical pattern I see.
