Here is an example of an uncirculated 1970S Lincoln cent.

I have two questions...

1. What do you think about the mint mark?

2. At first glance, the date appears to be a Large Date, but the "0" in the date looks tweaked (upward), so it may be misleading. Here is a photo of LIBERTY, as well...

Thanks for any comments...

From what I see in your images:

1. MDD on the mm

2. Large date type

Agree with Billy on both counts...the 7 is still below the bottom of the 0 regardless of how it looks "tweaked upward" at the top.

I think it is a Large Date... :(

It looks like it might be MD on the MM... :( but there are other things going on (in the central area)... :squigglemouth:
