panzaldi Bedrock of the Community United States 18645 Posts	Posted 06/19/2024 12:52 pm folks, seriously, I only own one coin. the only other thing that could have happened is that PCGS returned the wrong coin. has anyone seen this before? how do I go about following up with PCGS? any recommendations? it shocked me when the coin came back so I'm seriously confused Edited by panzaldi 06/19/2024 12:52 pm Report this Post to the Staff
Sap Moderator Australia 16810 Posts	Posted 06/19/2024 9:59 pm We can't really help in terms of interpreting what the differences mean for you, other than asserting the fact that the two images are indeed not the same coin. You mention a possible mix-up at PCGS, but neither of these pictures are of a coin in a PCGS slab - did you send the coin in for grading, then bust the coin out of the slab again before taking the picture? As for "where did the second coin come from", perhaps you own a regular 1909-S, as well as a 1909-S-VDB, and you've taken pictures of both of them? Someone more expert than me in the VDB variety might be able to tell which of these obverses "belongs with" the VDB. Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff

That's a good point. The mintmark position of the first coin is not compatible with a 1909-S-VDB. I suspect that one might be a 1909-S. Report this Post to the Staff

Zurie called it, it was my 09S I would gladly endure confusing my 1909-S with my 1909-S VDB just to have a 1909-S VDB. Quote: sorry for the confusion...
