About Dan Moore Expertise My strong familiarity with all U.S. Mint coins, extensive reference library,
and close relationships with many other dealers allows me to identify just
about any coin made in the USA. I receive regular updates to all the current
price guides -- both wholesale & retail -- to provide accurate values. So,
with a good description or pictures, I should be able to identify and value
any U.S. coin you have.
Experience I've been a coin dealer since the 1980's and a coin collector since the 1960's. I specialize in U.S. Silver Coins and have an active online website -- The Working Man's Rare Coins -- http://www.workingmancoins.com -- offering information and inventory in U.S. coins.

Question I saw an answer where you explained and illustrated the difference between 1970-S small date and large date. Will you please provide the same type of info for the 1960 and 1960-D penny.
Thank you in advance.
Answer Ben,
The inner loop of the 9 is much smaller on the small date.
The upper part of the 6 digit is straight up and down vertically with the outside of the loop on the large date. On the small date, the upper part of the 6 cuts short of being vertically even with the lower loop.
The zero is much smaller on the small date.
The top of the 1 and 9 digits are horizontally level on the small date. The 9 is taller than the 1 on large date coins.
