What is the possible grade and color of this 1909 VDB Lincoln Penny. It was acquired from a reputable dealer from ebay.

I I'm not sure that these photos show the luster that it actually has. It is indeed one of the nicest 1909 VDB LWC I've ever seen, maybe I am just biased.

Beautiful coin, I can see color under the brown. Appears to be a fully brown coin with strong luster under the toning. My favorite look for a brown Lincoln.

65BN, shot at 66 if it is super nice in hand. It's hard to tell with the pictures, the light is cutting through the patina a little too much. That's OK for showing color but can cause the viewer to see things that aren't much there.
