I have to disagree with Coppercrazy. I blew up your picture and compared the inner curve of the 9 pointing to 3 o'clock. On the Large Date, the inner curve points to 5 o'clock. Also comparing the serif of the "S" mintmark, it matches the small date.
 
I don't think the arc in the 9 turns in enough or points to 3 o'clock.

It's a really close one though. Could a tie breaker come in?
 
I agree it's a large date now after close examination.
 
I know this has nothing to do with this thread but what loupe do you use?

I use a 10x loupe I bought off amazon for $16. It is really nice I have the link to it in one of my other threads, but I don' know which one.
 
I have a 70s just like that there's a little nub on the curve of te nine that points straight toward the 7 also the tightness of the curve looks more of the small date variety
