The obverse lettering on the word Gratia - REX on some Mint State coins I don't know for sure if Specimen coins had it but worth a look

I have a 1979 penny very similar

I'm looking for opinions on this coin its the 1948 A Point to Denticle how do you tell which one it is the small or large denticles?

Yes I have seen a few web-sites and coin books that show prices for PL + SP coins but nothing for business strike coins I like others have a soft spot for such coins especially in the high grades. It just seems odd that there is no price guide for these coins as for eye appeal they have it 10 folds ...
