They look like Large date. Sorry the top of the 8 is to big and the 2 is not rounded on the front

What about this one and when I look at a couple of them with a microscope the G in God looks the same as well as the W in we also I think theres some sort of ddo on the 2

Everything shown is a Large Date.

All small dates. 

Here is a pic from the Following link.

Notice the differences in the shape of the 2 (easiest pick up point for me to see), size and top loop of the 8, and distance between the 2 and rim.  In 1982, Denver made over 6 BILLION (with a B) cents.  In 40 years, Only two 1982D small date coins have been found.  You have much better chances of winning the lotto than finding one.

You say all Small Dates, I think you meant all Large Dates (At least I hope you do).

Yep all large dates, none are worth more than the face value.

I can’t stand that “shape of the 2” diagnostic. The distance from the 2 to the edge is all I ever look at. It needs to be as wide as the 2 itself to be a small date. End of story. But that’s just me. I can’t stand drawing black lines on 1970-S small dates either.
