Lot 2001 1909 Lincoln Cent. V.D.B. MS-67 RD (PCGS). OGH. Splendid Superb Gem quality for this perennially popular fist year Lincoln cent issue. Both sides are highly lustrous with vivid reddish-orange color and a billowy satin texture. Expertly preserved, in fact virtually pristine, this delightful example would serve as a highlight in any type or date set. The entire mintage of 27,995,000 pieces for the circulation strike 1909 V.D.B. was achieved from June 10 through August 5, after which the Philadelphia Mint halted production on orders from Treasury Secretary Franklin MacVeagh due to controversy over the prominent placement of the designer's initials along the lower reverse border. Widely saved as a first year issue, the 1909 V.D.B. is plentiful in an absolute sense with high grade examples such as this particularly popular among today's quality conscious collectors.

Lot 3156 1909-S 1C VDB MS65 Red PCGS. This first-year issue with the designer's initials at the lower reverse was subject to widespread fanfare and hoarding with the idea that the coins would be confiscated. Gems are scarce but obtainable with Red surfaces, as here. Definition is crisp on Lincoln's portrait, the wheat sheaves, and the lettering on both sides. This lustrous key date shows a handful of trivial ticks.( Registry values : N1793) Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 22B2 , PCGS# 2428 ) Weight: 3.11 grams Metal: 95% Copper, 5% Tin and Zinc

Lot 16133 1909-S 1C VDB MS65 Red and Brown PCGS. CAC. When the first Lincoln cents were produced in San Francisco, in 1909, they showed the initials of designer Victor D. Brenner along the lower reverse border. This feature proved controversial, and the design was soon changed, with the initials VDB removed. This is a well-struck and nicely preserved Gem, with few surface flaws to distract the beholder. Ex: FUN Signature (Heritage, 1/2008), lot 450.

Lot 3895 1914-D 1C MS65 Red NGC. Unlike a number of other key dates in the Lincoln cent series, the 1914-D was not saved in quantity. While first-year enthusiasm preserved numerous 1909-S VDB cents, the 1931-S was anticipated as a low-mintage year, and the 1955 Doubled Die was tucked away as a curiosity even by non-numismatists, the 1914-D quietly slipped into circulation, and by the time collectors realized just how elusive examples were, the vast majority of the issue was circulated to some degree. By contrast, this vibrant Red Gem is a beautifully preserved survivor. The slightly hazy surfaces are predominantly copper-orange with elements of pale lilac and rose. Pleasingly detailed and surprisingly mark-free. A touch of streakiness at the lower reverse is of little concern. Census: 21 in 65 Red, 5 finer (6/17). Ex: Long Beach Signature (Heritage, 9/2004), lot 5436; FUN Signature (Heritage, 1/2008), lot 2706; ANA Signature (Heritage, 7-8/2008), lot 1202. From The Michael C.
