This obviously had to come from someone's collection. It's in a condition that I normally just find in late 50's wheat cents with full lines in the wheat. It also has a nice tonal quality rather than a straight brown. Too bad it doesn't have an S mintmark or a VDB.

Great find! Even when I was a kid in the '60's looking through change, I don't remember ever finding a 1909.

Yup. It happens. Sticky, ignorant fingers.
Nice find.

For a short while during the 1980s, my older brother drove an ice cream truck. According to him, it was not unusual for kids to pay for their treats with 90% silver coins, decades after they'd virtually disappeared from circulation.
