Comparing your photo with those in the Red Book (2010 ed.), I regret
to inform yours is a large date. The distinguishing feature is the
location of the "7". A small date cent has a "high 7" (the top of the
"7" is even with the top of the "0"). The large date has a "low
7" (the top of the "7" is slightly below the top of the "0").

Jerry,

Thanks for your time and expertise.

Doesn't look like one to me. For it to be a small date (aka hi-7) the 970
must all be the same height. Check my website and you will see what one
looks like.
