1909-S VDB Lincoln Cent, MS66+ Red
CAC Endorsement, Ex: Jack Lee

1909-S 1C VDB MS66+ Red PCGS. CAC. Strictly speaking, the 1909-S VDB cent is not scarce in an absolute sense, although it does boast by far the lowest mintage of the Lincoln cent series and it carries a degree of prestige that elevates it to status as one of most widely recognized key dates in all of American numismatics. Demand for this issue is arguably unparalleled by any other U.S. coin. The present Jack Lee specimen comes from a pedigree of excellence. Plus graded, it yields to a trivial population of just 15 higher-grade Red coins at PCGS (10/19). It is also one of barely more than three dozen Premium Gem Red coins with CAC recognition. Outstanding pumpkin-orange and golden hues intermingle in a delicate woodgrain pattern over frosty original luster. Neither side reveals a single notable distraction. CAC: 38 in 66, 3 finer (10/19).
