Lot Description

1909-S Lincoln Cent. V.D.B. MS-66 BN (NGC). This exceptionally attractive Lincoln cent displays vivid highlights of electric blue, salmon pink and orange-gold iridescence over warm glossy copper patina. It is smooth and satiny in texture with a sharp strike. The 1909-S V.D.B. is a key date Lincoln cent in all grades, the early removal of the designer's initials from the reverse design resulting in a mintage of only 484,000 pieces. This is a conditionally scarce premium Gem with superior eye appeal that is sure to result in strong bidder competition. NGC Census: 16; 0 finer in this category. PCGS# 2426.
