Spruett001's Official 5,079th Post Contest!

To celebrate crossing the 5,000 post mark, I am holding a simple contest. Many thanks to @lawest for unknowingly allowing me to steal his idea.

It requires some basic knowledge of Lincoln cents and I have decided to increase the possible answers this time.

The Rules

You must have at least 50 posts to play!
Members from all countries can participate.
You are allowed one guess per day. The day will reset at midnight EST (forum time).
No Editing! Make sure your guess will count.
The contest starts immediately after this post.

The Game

Here are the game pieces:




Here is the game board:



I have arranged the three folders in order from top to bottom. I then rolled the four marbles one at a time onto the board from various angles and with varying force until all four had settled in a hole.

Your job is to guess a hole by date and mintmark (if any). You will also need to specify VDB, Small Date/Large Date and Copper/Zinc for the appropriate years. If you guess a hole that a marble landed in, you win!

The possible answers range from 1909VDB at the upper left to 2016-D at the lower right. The last blank hole doesn't count. The year 2009 only has one P and D hole - the design varieties aren't necessary.

I will update with a list of guesses periodically to make things a little easier to track.

That should be clear enough.

The Prizes

All of the marbles I used are the same because all four prizes are the same! I am not going to reveal what the prizes are specifically, but I will say they contain silver, plastic and manganese.
