nss-52 Moderator United States 54280 Posts	Posted 03/26/2016 10:16 pm I concur this is a fake, but I am unaware of a definitive list of mint mark positions for the non-VDB 1909-S.

nss-52 Moderator United States 54280 Posts	Posted 03/27/2016 7:11 pm The mint mark is the wrong shape, and this is a Chinese counterfeit with the characteristic of an "open" O in GOD. I have 10-15 examples of this fake in my photo library.

JimNWLincoln Pillar of the Community United States 908 Posts	Posted 03/27/2016 9:53 pm Seller also has a 1922 (no D) and 1909-s vdb for sale along with an altered date 1914-d cent already flagged in another post. The date/mint-mark position on the 1909-s vdb looks off. The mint mark is under the 1st nine in the date, touching a line drawn between the bottom of the two nines but slightly too far to the left for Obverse #3 http://www.ebay.com/itm/1909-VDB-S-...AOSwxcRW9fH8 Report this Post to the Staff
