Its the 1=A2 coin that you want to be looking at. Large date/ Small date
is really a bad name for the varieties. Look at the 7 in the date. If
the top of the number is even with the other numbers, it is a "small
date" and if the top of the 7 is lower than the tops of the other
numbers it is a "large date". Also, look at the word "Liberty". If
boldly struck, it probably is a large date, and if its weak you may
have the more valuable small date. You will also want to check for a
number of different doubled dies on this coin.
