1960D small date or large date?

The 9 on this coin makes it very difficult (for me) to determine if this is considered the small date or large date. Can anyone help?

large date

 

Yup. Large date.

 

Darn! Thanks for the expert opinions guys.

 

large date... look at the 6.

 

For future reference, if the 9 is higher than the 1 in the date than it is the large date for sure.

 

and 1960d small dates are considered common by most...

 

60's are easier to tell than the 70's to me.

 

Nice die chip!

 

I did look at that chart. My problem is the 9. I can't tell what's going on with the head of the 9. Is that dirt or is the 9 itself smashed in?

The 6 onto itself didn't help me at all based on that reference picture. Would it help if next time I provide this information, is, what I've done/investigated on my own in my initial post for help? Thank you in advance for everyone's feedback!

I'm just starting out so I'm learning as I go. Thanks again!

 

What die chip are you referring to? Thanks in advance for your help pointing it out to me!

 

Based on the photo it looks like the nine is higher, large date.

 

the "9" has a die chip which is what caused upper part to be filled in, a tiny piece of the die chipped off leaving a void where metal flowed into when the coin was struck, http://www.error-ref.com/?s=die+chip

 

What....you didn't see the "9" filled in??? Cool find.

 

Thanks for all your help. Do I need to do anything with this coin? Does this little error increase the value of this coin?

 

I wouldn't bother. Not that amazing. Some people do love die chips though.

 

Sometimes die chips are the most interesting things you can find!
