    All of those pictured are large date.

    I found the easiest way to tell is by comparison to a known small date, In hand the 9 is quite different with a more closed loop.
    I spent time ti build a set of coins to use. The 1960 1c L/S dates, 1945 10c S/s, 1940 5 S/s, etc. Helps a lot.

    Drats, all large dates. Here's a photo of my proof small date for comparison, I use the seven as the marker. If it sits high so that it's level with the top of the zero, that is your small date.
