1989 no VDB Lincoln Penny

What does "VDB" stand for and where would it be located?
I have never been able to locate VDB on any of the Lincoln pennies.
Thank you

  • If VDB were located on the 1989 would it be located in the same area, or am I misinformed about VDB being on the 1989 Penny?

    Yes, in 1989, the VDB would be located on the bottom left side of Lincoln's shoulder as someone pointed out. However, there are a number of known 1989 Lincs without the VDB. I have one of them. I do not think they command much, if any, premium.

    ProofArtWorkonCoins provided a link here. What a coincidence.

    I found a couple oddballs in mint sets that are missing the entire
    bottom half of the VDB on this date. Here's the link.

    Are the initials gone entirely? Does it have thin tapered lettering on obverse or reverse?

    Is this Philly mint?
