What is the possible grade and color of this 1909 VDB Lincoln Penny. It was acquired from a reputable dealer from ebay.

I I'm not sure that these photos show the luster that it actually has. It is indeed one of the nicest 1909 VDB LWC I've ever seen, maybe I am just biased.

Beautiful coin, I can see color under the brown. Appears to be a fully brown coin with strong luster under the toning. My favorite look for a brown Lincoln.

65BN, shot at 66 if it is super nice in hand. It's hard to tell with the pictures, the light is cutting through the patina a little too much. That's OK for showing color but can cause the viewer to see things that aren't much there.

MS65BN. Great coin. Wonder where it will be 100 years from now?

MS65 and I agree this coin could go 66 easily
