GC: 1909-S Lincoln Cent V.D.B. PCGS MS-66 RD closes at $15,562.12 w/ BP

An iconic gem graded coin for young and old sells for good money at Great Collections tonight.
It's amazing how much nicer the GreatPhoto is compared to the TrueView.
TrueView could be considered MS66RY. π
It appears that a lot of the red has deteriorated over the past 116 years.

If it wasn't for a couple of carbon flecks and black spots along with some tics and rub on the shoulder and cheek along with muted luster, this one might have made MS67.
Very strong money for a non stickered coin that looks more red brown.
The two pics look drastically different. Would prefer to see this 09-S VDB non CAC in hand to shell out those Benjamin's.
Congrats to the new owner!
USAF (Ret.) 1985 - 2005. E-4B Aircraft Maintenance Crew Chief and Contracting Officer.
My current Registry sets:
β Everyman Mint State Carson City Morgan Dollars (1878 β 1893)
β Everyman Mint State Lincoln Cents (1909 β 1958)
β Morgan Dollar GSA Hoard (1878 β 1891)
imo should have traded for no more than $10k. Nice piece but not $15K nice.
Whoever is careless with the truth in small matters cannot be trusted with important matters.
That's harsche.
Coin like that was likely tried at CAC
Well, at least you got the spelling right this time. I tell it like I see it like numismatic pioneer Bert Harsche did.

Actually, $10K is too much. $8K-$9K more realistic value.

Double harsche.
That TV is sad.
Smitten with DBLCs.
