1909 VDB Lincoln Cent, MS66+ Red
FS-1102, Doubled Die Obverse
Glittering CAC Condition Rarity

1909 VDB 1C Doubled Die Obverse, FS-1102, MS66+ Red PCGS. CAC. Ex: Whispering Pines. Cherrypickers' notes, "the doubling on this variety is evident as extra thickness on all obverse letters and numbers, but it is most noticeable on the date." That reference also lists a die chip in the loop of the R in LIBERTY as a diagnostic. In reality, there are stages of die chips within the letters of LIBERTY depending on die state, and the chip in the R appears in Die Stage D; this example of the variety is in Die Stage C, without the chip in the R, but with the die chips in the B and a clash at Lincoln's throat. The peach-red surfaces are lustrous and virtually void of contact. The reverse has a few minuscule flecks.
