    I got this 1928 S Standing Liberty quarter recently, and I saw in the Red Book that there are two varieties: Small Mintmark and Large Mintmark (but no photos of each are shown). Does this coin have a small "S" or a large "S"? How do you tell the difference? To me, the Mintmark almost looks like an "8." Thanks for any help!

    If one had to guess, and I am, that looks like a large MM to me.
