VDB stands for Victor David Brenner, the designer of the lincoln obverse and the wheat reverse.
If you look on the reverse of a Memorial cent you will see FG which stands for Frank Gasparro
LB and JFM stand for Lyndall Bass and Joseph F Menna, the designers of the reverse of the shield cent.

They started out on the 1909 cents on the reverse. An uproar about them placed on the coin had them removed and did not appear again until 1918 when they were placed in the current position on the shoulder (incuse then).
