Impressive 1909 VDB Cent, PR65 Red

1909 1C VDB PR65 Red PCGS. Although business strike 1909 VDB cents are plentiful, proofs are infrequently encountered. Only 1,194 proofs were minted, and only a fraction of those survive today. Example such as this brilliant proof are seldom seen. The surfaces are satiny with brilliant original Red color and wisps of iridescence on each side. The strike is excellent with pinpoint details. The reverse has a raised die line from the rim to the period after the D and a tiny crescent-shaped die chip right of the M in UNUM, both die markers for the matte proofs. Population: 7 in 65 Red, 9 finer (11/09).(Registry values: N4719)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 22KR, PCGS# 3302, Greysheet# 2472)
