Inspired by this thread, I thought it would be fun to let everybody show off their key date coins. I know that "key date" is a somewhat nebulous term, but I think generally it refers to coins that are deemed to have extra significance (and value) due to being the first in a series, having low mintage, etc. Basically, they are the coins that everybody knows about, wants to own and (often) can't afford.

So here's your chance -- show 'em if you got 'em!

I don't have a lot of key dates (yet), but here's what I have so far:

1909-S VDB Lincoln Cent:

barryg,

Whenever I feel bad about having sold a goodly number of coins amassed over three generations
I look at these coins and I remember that 'Less IS More!'

And thanks for the invite to share them!
