1909 Wheat penny

ERingus

I received this in my change today from a local store. It’s in relatively good shape I think. It’s not the VDB or even MM S but it’s still pretty cool.

It IS a VDB

ERingus

Oh crap. I didn’t even see that until now. I was so excited about posting it!

It is a pretty nice coin I think. Thanks for pointing out my error @braddick I’m still wet behind the ears but have learned so much just in the last day from reading.

That's a cool pick up

A highly unusual circulation find. Those have effectively been out of circulation since about 1963 ... the end of the great coin collecting boom of the late 1950s and early 1960s.

If you were hanging out for a 113 years you might have some green as well
Nice find

Wow... Really nice change find... Nothing like free (well, one cent) coin treasures. Good pictures too... Cheers, RickO
