GTone New Member United States 25 Posts	Posted 05/09/2025 01:35 am I'll have what I call a really really really nice 1909 VDB in hand Saturday. I've already looked at the 2026 Red Book and I'm wondering if it would be worth grading it? Or where do you find graded currency values at? Report this Post to the Staff

GTone New Member United States 25 Posts	Posted 05/09/2025 03:17 am I appreciate the welcome! Its a real beauty I tell you. I'll add pictures Saturday before Noon, once it's in hand but since I am new to collecting, I'm not sure how high it would grade but to me it's SUPER nice... Report this Post to the Staff

Take a look at my other hobby ... https://www.jk-dk.art Too many hobbies .... too much work .... not enough time. Report this Post to the Staff
