    I'm seeing coin#5 as the only one.

    'LIBERTY' is the tellimage

    Diagnostics 1970 small date: On the scarcer small date variety, the top of the numeral 7 is aligned with the top of the numerals 9 and 0.

    On the basis of that, only #5 looks like the small date variety.

    #5 is a small date. The others are large dates.

    I'm not sure #5 is a S.D. either.

    5 is, definitely. Liberty is weak, and I'll bet the inner loop of the 9 comes to a point.

    Thay are all Proofs. Images taken within the proof sets.

    I think # 5 is the only one as well but wasn't sure about 2 & 3.

    cmerlo1 is right on. Besides the top of the "7" location, Liberty (especially the "y") is always weakly struck on the small date variety.

    #5 looks like a winner, #1 maybe.
