Own a remarkable piece of American coinage history with this 1909 VDB Lincoln Cent in Almost Uncirculated condition, sourced directly from an impressive Walk-In Shop Hoard. These coins were carefully preserved for decades by a veteran coin dealer, allowing them to retain sharp detail, beautiful surfaces, and outstanding overall eye appeal. Now released for the first time in years, this special group offers collectors a rare chance to secure a high-quality VDB cent with exceptional originality.

The 1909 VDB Lincoln Cent marks the first year of the iconic Lincoln Cent series, introduced to commemorate the 100th anniversary of Abraham Lincoln’s birth. Designed by Victor David Brenner, the coin originally featured his initials “VDB” prominently at the bottom of the reverse. Public criticism over the bold placement led to their rapid removal, creating one of the most compelling and collectible varieties in the entire Lincoln series. VDB cents are scarce in high grade, making AU examples like these especially desirable.

Struck at the Philadelphia Mint, this issue had a mintage of 27,995,000, but survival in Almost Uncirculated condition is far more limited. These pieces showcase crisp design elements, strong wheat ears, and excellent remaining luster—traits not often found on circulated examples. Whether you’re building a Lincoln Cent set or adding historic depth to your collection, these VDB cents represent an important and rewarding acquisition.

Each coin in this offering comes directly from the Walk-In Shop Hoard, untouched for years and released exclusively through our store. With their blend of beauty, rarity, and historical significance, these coins stand out as exceptional collector opportunities. Secure yours today before this limited stash is gone.
