1909-S VDB Lincoln Cent (1c)

This CAC-approved AU58 example of the most famous key date in all of numismatics displays exceptional eye appeal with rich, even, chocolate-brown color throughout. The surfaces show minimal circulation wear with just a touch of rub on the high points, retaining nearly full mint luster in the protected areas. The strike is sharp and well-defined, with crisp details in Lincoln's hair and the wheat stalks. The original surfaces remain unmarred by significant contact marks or spots, making this a premium example for the assigned grade.
