Magnificent 1909-S VDB Cent
MS66 Red and Brown

1909-S VDB 1C MS66 Red and Brown NGC. This is, perhaps, the best-known collector date coin in the 20th century, and this specimen is worthy of any high-grade collection. Much of the original red patina remains, but significant brown is also present on the obverse, while the reverse has almost fully intact mint red. The obverse striking details are just a bit soft over the high points, the only negative aspect we can point out about this magnificent coin. Census: 44 in 66 Red and Brown, 0 finer (5/10).(Registry values: N2998)
