1909-S VDB Lincoln Cent (1c)

Lovely, fully original VF with warm medium-brown color and a faint reddish undertone that gives the fields a soft, glossy look. Wear is even and balanced, LIBERTY and the date are bold, the V.D.B. is crisp, and both wheat ears retain pleasing definition. Surfaces are honest and problem free for the grade, with just a touch of circulation friction that sets the level. Eye appeal is strong for a circulated example, and the green bean on this PCGS gold shield holder feels well deserved.
