bobby131313 Forum Dad United States 24154 Posts	Posted 01/22/2024 09:31 am Since we get quite a few posts here from people thinking they have a 1909 matte proof I thought I'd post a genuine one from Ken Potter's FB group. This one is a bonus DDR though. Shop CCF Members on eBay. Report this Post to the Staff

JDRMCB Pillar of the Community United States 616 Posts	Posted 01/22/2024 11:05 am With a mintage of a mere 2,352 matte proof 1909 (non VDB) wheat cents struck that year, it begs the question of how many different die pairings were used to do so? From everything I've read, all 2,352 coins were struck with a single die pairing, thus if this coin is a genuine DDR, then every 1909 matte proof Lincoln Wheat cent should be a DDR with earlier die state examples more recognizable than later die states, no?
