Pleasing 1909-S VDB Cent
MS64 Red
1909-S VDB 1C MS64 Red PCGS. David Lange, in his 2005 The
Complete Guide to Lincoln Cents, notes that the 1909-S VDB
issue was widely hoarded at the time of its release, and that even
Uncirculated coins are quite common. Grading services' data
corroborate his assertion--PCGS and NGC have certified about 5,900
Mint State examples in all three color designations. Yet, the
relatively large supply of these coins is outstripped by the heavy
demand placed on them by complete-set or key-date collectors and
those simply fascinated with this particular issue.The Red near-Gem that we offer here displays pleasing luster and copper-gold color laced with traces of crimson and mint-green. A well executed strike manifests itself in sharp definition on the design features, including crisp detail on all of the lines in the wheat stalks. A few light flecks on each side do not detract from the outstanding eye appeal. Housed in a green-label PCGS holder.(Registry values: N1793)
