1909-S VDB Lincoln Cent (1c)

Lovely mid XF example with wholesome, fully original brown color that leans cinnamon with subtle olive undertones. Wear is even and balanced, with strong definition in the beard, wheat lines, and all lettering including the V.D.B. Surfaces are smooth for the grade, showing just light circulation friction and faint traces of protected-area luster. A tiny tone spot on the date is not overly distracting. Housed in a clean NGC holder, this coin delivers honest surfaces and strong eye appeal for an XF BN.
