Penny Find 1970S

[midntmn]

I just found this 1970 S while searching a roll. It looks somewhere between EF40 and BU. It looks to me to be a "small date, high 7" but I have difficulty distinguishing between that and the "large date, low 7 " variety. As there is a big difference in value between the two varieties, does anyone have any "expert" opinions on which it is, and how to tell the difference between the two

I am by no means an expert but if you will read my post I have posted a picture of one I found. If you post a picture I will try and see if I can tell. I have been searching pennies for quite a while and thought I had found several that wasn't. I will say this when you see one compared to another it is very obvious. The best way is to look at the tail of the 9 and see which way it is pointing if towards the S it is a large date. If the tail of the 9 point towards the 7 it is a small date. The first two pictures are small dates and the last two large dates

Haven't found one myself. The 1960 small date is tough too. Only found 1.

The LIBERTY on a small date will be weak. Hope this helps.
