Guatemala 5 Centavos 1958 Large vs Small date

Does anyone know how to tell the difference between Guatemala 1958 5 Centavos Large vs Small dates? I'm having a hard time finding any images that clearly show the difference between the two. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

    Yeah, the digits on the large date are bigger >:)

    I'm sorry, but I couldn't resist. I can't offer any help, but do hope that someone can provide the answer for you. Best of Luck

    LOL. Thanks for the info.

    It's a little frustrating because on the majority of other world coins I have if there is difference in the letter or date size I can usually find pics of the different variations quite easily, but in this case I just have notes that say there are large and small dates for this specific year.

    @PlatinumDuck I happened to see a post you did several years back re Guatemala 5 centavos. What is the interest in these? Someone gave me an envelope of them from late 1960’s to mid 70’s. They are base metal, and not particularly interesting, but I see a bunch for sale on eBay-do they know something I don’t/should?

    Thanks in advance
