I see no VDB ... IMHO an average circulated state 1909 LWC. Need better photos to confirm this hopeful nice find. David

I see something that resembles VDB but it's very weak. How could the cent be in such good condition with that weak of a VDB?

I could see it fine with the first pics. Might've been a tad bit of grease in that area.

I see the VDB, no problem. It's a great feeling to get unexpected special coin in a roll.
Congrats on a great find.

Nice find you do have to look closely on the 1909 Lincoln's especially on grades F-12 and under because the V.D.B. will often be faint. When you do find 1909 VDB make sure you check the obverse lettering as there is a DDO (Doubled Die Obverse) to look for there.

Time don't fly, it bounds and leaps.
