    Hi, as I have nothing to compare to, could someone please tell me if this is the large or small mint mark?

    Take a punt at grading too, if you like, as I'm unfamiliar with your Sheldon scale. :)

    Small. When the lower serif points downward, you have the Small MM. When the serif points up, it's the Large MM.

    The large has a big triangle on the lower left S serif.
    You can see that clearly on Lehigh96's coin. 41largeS Lehigh96.jpg
