1909-S VDB Lincoln Wheat reverse VF25 BN NGC

The 1909-S VDB Lincoln Wheat Reverse, graded VF25 by NGC, is a well-preserved example of this highly sought-after key date coin, with the "VF25" grade indicating moderate wear while retaining significant design details. The coin features the iconic portrait of Abraham Lincoln on the obverse and the classic wheat ears on the reverse, with the rare "VDB" initials of the designer, Victor David Brenner, placed discreetly on the lower reverse. As one of the first coins to feature the VDB initials, this rare issue from the San Francisco Mint is a prized addition to any collection, with the "BN" (Brown) designation indicating the coin’s darker patina, adding to its historical character. (Key Date)
