1909-S VDB Lincoln Wheat Cent PCGS F Detail – Environmental Damage – KEY DATE

 Key date 1909-S VDB King of the Lincoln Cents graded PCGS F Detail, Environmental Damage

Strong detail with a bit of posoristy or chafing resulted in the Environmental Damage designation

Roundedness of Lincoln’s portrait, vest and facial hair with good definition on the finer details are more consistent with a VF grade

Just another example of a genuine coin with a minor issue being sevrealy penalized on the detail grade which has become the new norm the last 6-12 months

Medium oak brown and very naturlal color are the final touches on this very pleasing and eye appealing example
