The medium 6 was from one obverse die and it has a distinct hole in the ear. So if you are debating between small and medium, or large and medium, check for a whole in the ear. Now, both the N15 and N21 are small date with hole in ear, but they are very scarce and rare respectively. Point being, if you think it's a medium date, check for a hole in the ear.

[QUOTE="beef1020, post: 2080891, member: 24544"]It's a small date for sure, and not one of the valuable small date varieties, they both have holes in the ear.
