I nominate this coin for a complimentary grading by a grading service -- on the arm -- free/gratis, to drum up interest for the benefit of all parties... the common man, the collector, the numismatist and TPGS that recognizes an opportunity to promote the hobby.

Surely you cannot find anything truly objectionable with the comparatively mild toning of this Denver example? (No one denies the scuff mark on the right ear of the wheat stalk is unfortunate.)

There is a strong suggestion of Mint State-ishness but to what tenth of a degree, I don't know. One side rates a solid + in my book. You really do love your Lincolns!

Popular Post Mr_Spud Posted March 5, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted March 5, 2021 Are So-Called Dollars allowed? Maybe others can play any So-Called dollar? If so, I’m playing this.

For those new to the hobby, see if you can spot them with the unaided eye recessed.(incused) bas-relief, deep within the truncated ridge of Lincoln's right shoulder at the bottom of the obverse side..Now think, would you be able to do such a magnificent job of producing hundreds of thousands of them speedily, under great pressure? The 1909-s V.D.B. in what was known then as Gem Brilliant Unciculated condition was the first coin I ever0 bought with earnings as a delivery boy, aged 15, at $1.25/hr. + tips from Stack's for $200. Needless to say, my mother was incredulous: "You paid two hundred dollars -- for a penny!" I certainly did. A bright red beautiful one cent piece in a paper flip which I sold years later after they had taken silver out of coins, and the thrill for me, was gone.

Ray, USMC Posted March 6, 2021 Share Posted March 6, 2021 The 1909 V.D.B. is one of my favorite Cents. These are some gorgeous examples. I love these pictures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post RonnieR131 Posted March 13, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted March 13, 2021 This 'follow the lead' picture post has been the most pleasurable thing for me in the last two years. When I'm bored or the day isn't going well, I just start with the first page and go all the way thru to the end. I'm always smiling when I'm done. Thanks to all that contribute, and Keep Going!!
