I'm with @jbuck here. The photo looks a bit washed out. Here's what I see when I enhance and sharpen the image:

I like it. This one would sell on a bourse floor.
If the price were right I would buy it. However, it is a much higher grade than the rest of my IHC set, so the price being right is unlikely.

A couple woody collectors might get in a bidding war over this one if it came up. Very interesting coin.

I like woody cents as well, but not the obverse on this one. I tend to like woodgrains that accentuate and not dominate, I think they should complement the coin, not take it over. The reverse does this well, it simply adds to the coin and makes it look more spiffy. However it dominates the obverse do a degree that is distracting and I'm personally not a huge fan of that.

Not my cup of tea. But who am I to say? I don't own any 1909-s yet.

i do like wood-grain and it is common on 1909-s and 1908-s but I personally dont think this is that nice of a wood grain toning. important adn rare coin nonetheless
