I suppose somewhere, tucked away in somebody's attic buried in an old steamer trunk by someone long dead is a roll of uncirculated 1909-S VDB cents. They could be easily unrolled and stuffed into a tube. Or spent in a gum machine (if any still exist).

These new smilies are driving me crazy (well, more crazy).

ha liked the stories I think its neat how some people get started collecting it is cool good luck with the cents

Hi Berry4402: Prices that I've noticed for the DDO's are all over the place. The one I looked at this week was a RB, mostly B in very good condition - graded, oh probably a Fine or so. The gentleman was asking $2,000 for it. He had one also that I didn't see for $10,000 but, I didn't ask the grade. Since you sold yours maybe you don't really want to know what they're going for now. You sold your's for a good reason though and we all understand that I'm sure. The DDO's keep getting picked up by collectors so the prices keep rising. Maybe you'll find another one someday. Wouldn't that be nice!!!!!!!!!!!

In my "97 years of Lincoln"...I've finished quite a few more tubes since a couple of weeks ago...mostly 70's and all from my pocket change. Now I see how my Mother accumulated sooooooooooo many pennies in her 86 years!

ps: Hey, madhandles...how are you doing on your's?
