@heribase: 💰 A 1-cent coin can look ordinary… until you notice the “7.” This is a 1970-S Lincoln Memorial Cent, and the key detail is the Small Date variety, also called the “High 7.” The top of the 7 lines up with the tops of the other date digits, while on the Large Date variety, the 7 sits noticeably lower. Another clue: “LIBERTY” is weaker on the Small Date. 🏆 And the auction history gets interesting: a 1970-S Small Date graded MS67 by PCGS sold for $2,464 in a 2008 auction, according to PCGS CoinFacts. Another PCGS MS67 example of the FS-1401 variety sold for $998.75 at Heritage Auctions in 2016. The coin in the photo is labeled as a 1970-S Small Date, so that tiny difference in the date is exactly what you want to check. 📱 Not sure which variety you have?
