Neither are overdates but the 1970-S could be an RPM. Can you post a better image of the 70-S?

I am not seeing an RPM here, but mint marks from this era are known for being "filled" and I think this is what you're seeing. I can also see some "smashing" from a counting machine or circulation.

It's not a small date either. The inner point of the 9 is not pointed and curved toward the 7. Plus the rest of the coin is NOT visible to further diagnose.
