1909-S. VDB. PCGS graded MS-65 Red & Brown. Well struck and choice for the grade. Nearly full Red, a fact downplayed by the RB designation. Minting of this coin stopped because of the "offensive" initials of the designer at the base of the reverse. Had the reverse been left alone, this would probably have turned out to be a very common issue! Housed in an older generation, green-label holder, hinting at a possible upgrade. Estimated Value $2,500 - 3,000

 
Realized $3,105
