Opened up a 3X5 "Holy Bible" bank from the 70s

I opened up a small 3X5 "Holy Bible" bank. There were around 50 coins in it, cents and nickels. The coolest thing about it was that you could reasonably put a date on when she put the coins in the bank. The last date was a 1971 lincoln cent, the rest were 60s cents and nickels from 1943 to 1961.

I looked through them and didn't find any doubling unfortunately. Here are a couple 1970 and 59' cents. I think these are large date 1970 cents. Do you agree or do I have a small date?

    Nice toning. image
  • I do not have a picture. I tried to save it but couldn't get the coins out because it was jam-packed. It looked kind of like this one, black and gold without the praying hands.

    Small date and large dates are only on 1970-S's.
