If that's the actual color of the coin, it should be a RB.

So glad that fingerprint is on the holder. Fingerprints drive me crazy and I would never own a coin with a crazy print. Nice pickup!

GS housed coins I've noticed are slightly more than a comparable graded NGC coin.
\This is really true. Many dealers have created this due to always saying things like "Of course this coin costs more, it is in a PCGS slab"
Doesn't really mean the coin is worth more, just that the PCGS name is really so popular.
And for the price, that 09S VDB is fantastic. I too think it appears to be a lot more Red than noted on the slab.
Price wise think of this. Only 484,000 minted and over 300,000,000 people in the USA alone.

Why is that not a RB coin? I'm only assuming that the pictures is off a bit in color. Either that or I really don't know anything about Lincolns.
