    I have more researching to do but preliminary findings re: 1909-S V.D.B. obverses reveals that the diagram I and others have been using with high confidence shows only 3 of the 4 obverses used to make 1909-S V.D.B. Lincoln cents. not all 4. Harsche saw 3 different 1909-S obverses for 1909-S V.D.B. and documented them correctly with pictures on page 13 in his 5th edition of "Detecting Altered Coins", ©1973. I'm seeing that the 4th obverse, as I suspected, is indeed quite scarce relative to the other 3. Harsche never saw the 4th obverse for 1909-S V.D.B. and that's why Harsche's publication doesn't show it.

    More later but I wanted to get this information out asap...

    it has to be a troll

    No doubt about it; he's been rehashing the same tired topics for years now, or should I say "reharsching". :D

    After my research is further along to hopefully answer other questions that arise I will reveal what the true 4th die position looks like here.

    A still unanswered question is, "was this 4th die used to also make 1909-S without V.D.B.?"

    I'll be back after the Thanksgiving Holiday. Keep bumping this thread up to the first page 1909 Lincoln cent fans. That's where it needs to be for a time. Some shocking revelations are in store.

    I found this wonderful holiday greeting card with my PCGS #4 Issue for November-December. This is very nice artwork and it's signed. PCGS mod please check with the boss and see if you can identify the artist who did the fantastic drawings to make this card. I <3 it. Publish the artist's name here if you would. Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
