Yes, you appear to have a 1960 and 1960-D SD and LD. The "valuable" one if the 1960 SD. It is worth about $3 in full red uncirculated.

 

I looked , do you think I have the 1960 small date here? need a second opinion- thanks--BILL thanks was typing and you beat me to it

 

That sums it up.

 

In order of your pics. Large, small, large, large

 

Sorry, but it is Large, small, large, small

 

What makes you say the last is small?

 

look at the yellow line compared to the first picture. see the different angle? thats what I was going by

 

At first I thought the last one was small, especially by examining the thumbnail, but after a second viewing I agree with fishaddicit that it's a large...

 

The angle on the tail of the 6, the angle on the tail of the 9, and the 0. All three say it is a small date.

 

I agree with Rim cents.

I drew out parallel lines on key points in the last picture. It is a large date. The 9 is too high, the inner loop of the 6 is too low and the inner loop of the 9 is too high when you follow the lines (see my post below for comparison pics).

 

The picture is a little small to be certain. I did think at first glance it was SD. Anyway, here's a quick collage of a SD and LD and why I made the comments in the above post...
