Lot 301		1909-S Lincoln Cent. VDB. NGC graded MS-66 Red. An exceptional example of this ever popular key date. The original red color is fully present, and only the faintest traces of a fingerprint can be seen. Superb color and surface quality. Only 484,000 struck, most of which entered circulation at the time of issue. Some were saved as the first of their kind, and this is likely one that was set aside and carefully preserved since the day it was made. Estimated Value $3,000 - 4,000. View details and enlarged photos	Unsold
Lot 302		1909-S Lincoln Cent. VDB. ICG graded MS-66 Red. This one has a few very minor specks on either side, with a small fingerprint pattern on the reverse. Excellent surfaces that show few signs of handling or other detriments. Fiery yellow red in color. Estimated Value $2,500 - 3,500. View details and enlarged photos	Unsold
Lot 303		1909-S Lincoln Cent. VDB. PCGS graded MS-65 Red. Bright original red in color with just a few hints of specks. An important coin to locate in gem condition. Typical strike, with weakness on the top of O in ONE, and the initials a bit soft on the lower reverse. Estimated Value $2,000 - 2,500. View details and enlarged photos	Realized $2,530
Lot 304		1909-S Lincoln Cent. VDB. ICG graded MS-65 Red. The color has just a trace of reddish mellowing on this coin, and the strike is full and complete. A key date that has always been popular with collectors since the day they were struck. Collector's heard that the bold initials on the reverse were going to dropped, so many hoarded the initial V.D.B. coins knowing they would be scarce. Luckily for today's collectors, they remain scarce, but available for a price. Estimated Value $1,500 - 2,000. View details and enlarged photos	Unsold
Lot 305		1909-S Lincoln Cent. VDB. EF-45. This one is perfect for the date collector who demands top quality without paying the much higher price for a mint state example.

Note the tiny die crack through the right peak and inside leg of the M in UNUM and a tiny die dot before the E of E PLURIBUS. One to put in your date set and mark off your want list forever. Estimated Value $400 - 500. View details	Realized $529
Lot 306		1909-S Lincoln Cent. VDB. AU-50 but cleaned. Cleaned, but a coin that could be improved with a little more natural appearing brown toning. Scarce and popular. Estimated Value $400 - 500. View details	Realized $575

Lot 308		1909-S Lincoln Cent. VDB. Sharpness of Fine-12 but corroded. The entire coin has been corroded or bathed in some sort of abrasive acid.

Lot 309		1909 Lincoln Cent. This set grades Good and better, with many later dates in Mint State. Note the 1909 S VDB is VG and nice for the grade, other key dates have decent surfaces too.

Lot 323		1914-D Lincoln Cent. PCGS graded AU-55. One of the key dates to the Lincoln Cent series, the 1914-D has earned its place in the collectors hall of fame by just being downright hard to find in any grade.
