    Here is three different pennys. Out of 15 of them, these three might be. By far this is the hardest variety for me to determine. I know the three checks to determine if its small or not. It should be that easy right. Any help will go a long way. I only took pics of the dates. Im pretty sure thats all i need for you veterans to figure it out.

    That second one, the brown one, the 9 seems to curl all the way around. Which is what you want. Also on the SD the point of the 9 will be sharp and on the LD it will be blunt. Also, you need to show LIBERTY in the photo in most small date 70-S the LIBERTY will be weakly struck.

    The middle one may be a small date. Need an image of LIBERTY.

    Being perfectly honest, they all look like large dates to me. I'm curious if the middle coin's 9 looks slightly different due to a lighting angle.

    Does that third one have machine doubling?
    Third attachment in the OP that is.

    I'm inclined to say yes on the second one.
