OldCoinCollections New Member United States 13 Posts	Posted 01/16/2017 10:03 am I have a 1909-S VDB I have been terrified to send in for grading. I took it in to a coin dealer and he told me it's 50 50 that its real but send it in to find out, he said he wouldn't tell me to if he knew it was 100% fake but the problem is there is 4 different ways the S was struck and he didn't know all 4 so hopefully that was just the problem, but could someone look at it and verify it's real for me so I can get it graded. I also want a personal grading from someone, I was thinking 61RD comparing it to the PCGS images of graded coins but who do you all think? * Moved by Staff to a more appropriate forum. * Report this Post to the Staff

RoyCoinBoy Pillar of the Community United States 1609 Posts	Posted 01/16/2017 11:20 am Sorry, but we'll need closer and clearer pics of the 1909 S and the VDB. http://www.PCGS.com/News/Counterfei...incoln-Cents Maybe this will help you with the coin in hand.

otto Pillar of the Community United States 1326 Posts	Posted 01/16/2017 11:41 am Tone-wise, it looks red-brown to me. "S" looks tilted to me. Here is a link on this topic: http://www.PCGS.com/News/Counterfei...incoln-Cents Report this Post to the Staff
Omegaraptor Valued Member United States 321 Posts	Posted 01/16/2017 2:11 pm "S" looks a bit off, but I'm no expert on this. Doesn't this belong in the modern forum though? Report this Post to the Staff

Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 01/16/2017 5:16 pm Looks like Die Pair #4 to me - preliminary opinion is that it's probably okay, but I'll wait for better pics. Report this Post to the Staff

acloco Pillar of the Community United States 3540 Posts	Posted 01/16/2017 6:15 pm Open the holder so that the frost of the plastic is not diluting the picture quality. Also, if possible, please rotate 90 degree to the right, so the obv and rev are oriented correctly when you post the pictures. THANKS! Report this Post to the Staff
