Los 3296 1909-S VDB 1C MS65 Red and Brown PCGS. The 1909-S VDB cent has been many collectors' first exposure to the idea of a key-date coin, and this Red and Brown Gem could be the fulfillment of someone's lifelong dream. Considerable remaining red-aligned hues on each side render the color designation accurate. PCGS has graded just 36 finer Red and Brown examples (11/14).( Registry values : N1793) Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 22B2 , PCGS# 2427 ) Weight: 3.11 grams Metal: 95% Copper, 5% Tin and Zinc

Los 3308 1914-D 1C MS64 Red and Brown PCGS. CAC. The 1914-D cent had a mintage more than twice that of its 1909-S VDB predecessor, but it did not have the same publicity. As a result, while decent Mint State 1909-S VDB cents are readily available for those with a few thousand dollars, quality 1914-D cents in the same grades are much harder to come by. This MS64 Red and Brown example is only slightly mellowed with only one flyspeck of significance at 3 o'clock on the obverse. Small cuts at Lincoln's forehead, left beard, and shoulder contribute to the grade, but as the CAC sticker shows, the MS64 Red and Brown assessment is fair. PCGS has certified just 48 examples in numerically finer Red and Brown grades (11/14).( Registry values : N2998) Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 22BH , PCGS# 2472 ) Weight: 3.11 grams Metal: 95% Copper, 5% Tin and Zinc

Los 3134 1909-S VDB 1C MS65 Red and Brown PCGS Secure. CAC. This Red and Brown Gem yields dominance to the former color, with only a few wisps of pale burgundy toning intermixed throughout. The strike is sharp and the frosty surfaces deliver warm, luminous luster. A small speck near the S in TRUST appears to be the only sign of carbon, though this is almost completely missed by a casual study of the surfaces. PCGS has certified only 35 numerically finer coins in the Red and Brown color category (10/14).( Registry values : N1793) Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 22B2 , PCGS# 2427 ) Weight: 3.11 grams Metal: 95% Copper, 5% Tin and Zinc

Los 3083 1909-S VDB 1C MS65 Red PCGS. The popularity of the S-VDB is a constant in U.S. numismatics. Worth a premium as soon as they were minted, considerable numbers were set aside in high grade. Even so, the number of Gem Red examples is not enough to satisfy collector demand for the one-year type. This piece shows natural Mint Red color with just a touch of pale olive and a few flecks on each side. Strongly defined throughout. A lovely Gem example of this important early Lincoln cent.( Registry values : N1793) Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 22B2 , PCGS# 2428 ) Weight: 3.11 grams Metal: 95% Copper, 5% Tin and Zinc

Los 210 1909-S Lincoln Cent. V.D.B. MS-63 BN (NGC). Glossy copper brown surfaces are warmly and evenly toned over crisply impressed devices.

Arguably one of the most famous of all small cent issues, the 1909-S V.D.B. cent is eagerly sought in all grades from well-circulated Good-4 right on up through the Gem grade range.
