Regardless of grade that is a really nice example of an iconic key date!

Thank you all for the many opinions. Much appreciated.

I bought this coin at a 1987 Bowers and Merena auction where it was described as 'Mint State, wood-grained toning'. I recall I paid $330 for the coin. I am only mentioning this because it highlights the price increase these 'key-dates' have seen in the intervening years, even accounting for inflation I would say. Maybe I should have bought a roll of them back then!

Ah, the glory days before slab inflation :(

Two of my favorite coins in my books (1909 VDB, no S in VF35; 1883/2 Shield nickel -FS013.2 LDS in VF20) are raw LCS purchases from "those days". I paid $3 for the VDB and $28 for the nickel.

That is one SERIOUSLY beautiful S-VDB

I am not worthy of such a beautiful Wheat cent :P

Also, $330...
