Description
1909-S VDB Cent, MS66 Red
Beautifully Preserved and Lustrous
1909-S 1C VDB MS66 Red PCGS. The 1909-S VDB Lincoln cent is
plentiful in terms of key date coins, although no other issue in
all of numismatics has spurned as many young boys and girls into
life-long coin collectors. For decades after this issue's coinage,
examples could be found in circulation if enough eyes looked.
Today, advanced collectors prefer Mint State pieces. This high-end
Red example is among the finest that most collectors will have an
opportunity to acquire, as the few higher-grade coins known are far
out of reach for most numismatists. A sharp strike endows the
devices with bold definition, and vibrant, frosty mint luster
cascades through the orange-gold fields. A few tiny amber specks
are not bothersome. PCGS reports merely 16 numerically finer Red
examples (8/25).(Registry values: N2998)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 22B2, PCGS# 2428, Greysheet# 1801)
Weight: 3.11 grams
