Recently found this 1909-VDB that appears to have been buried in some acidic soil. Strong strike but substance on the coin has appearance of sand and the surface of the coin is rough in places as it would be had it been placed in acid or possibly in salt water for a long time.
@rjh, I'm not seeing a question from you relating to an error or variety for this cent so I'm going to move your thread to the general forum for us modern coins. If you actually do have a question relating to this more narrow subject, then pls let me know and I'll move your thread back here. Thx.
