Yep, I have it printed but just wanted to get others opinion's before I say which one(s) I think are the small date.

[jgrinz]

most are not

#5 may be but tough to tell with the scratches

Its hard to See the diagnostic features from the pictures my guess would be coin 2 but non of them seem to have a weak liberty

Numbers 1,2,3,4,6 Large Date.

Number 5 Small Date

 

Examine the 970, if the "top " of the numbers line up it is a small date,

if the "top" of the 7 is below the 9 and 0 it is a large date.

i was gonna say #'s 3, 4, & 5 look right.. at a glance. these are a little goofy to an untrained eye.. the hook of the 9, if all the #'s are level, and a mushy LIBERTY are key PUP's...

 

i need one for my proof collection.. wanna sell one? email me - daini15@hotmail.com..

From the images I think they are all Large date.

All of these are "large dates". Personally, I find the bottom of the "7" to be the better diagnostic. If it extends lower than the bottom of the neighboring zero, you have a large date.

something else to add.
