1909-S PCGS MS-65 RD. 1909-S PCGS MS-65 RD.
Lot Title: 1909-S PCGS MS-65 RD.
Description: The flame from a propane tank has nothing on the fiery red that illuminates this amazing gem, especially on the reverse, where yellow-gold brilliance alternates with a band of blazing red glory. A vestige of woodgrain effect occupies the lower quarter of the obverse, and the only carbon spot of prominence is one resting between the two large "Ns" on the reverse. A stunning coin that is unquestionably worthy of the MS-65 grade!
Low Estimate: $1,350.00

1909-S NGC MS-64 RB.
Extensive brick-red color cedes to a darker patch of patina in the right obverse field, while about the left side of the reverse tends toward darker overtones as well, explaining the red-brown...

1909-S/S PCGS MS-64RD CAC, 1910-S PCGS MS-64RD CAC, and a 1912-D PCGS...

Five key Lincoln cents, as described.

1909-S PCGS MS-64BN, and a 1910-S NGC MS-65 BN.

1909-S NGC MS-65 RB.
Strong wood grain effect will appeal to the many collectors who enjoy character along with their quality, this key Lincoln cent not lacking in that department either. The busy effect of the extensive...
493The Midwest Summer Sale on 07/26/2013$800.00
1909-S NGC MS-65 RB.
Mike Wrinkle Collection. Worthy of resubmission for a full "RD" designation, this key cent shows no depreciation of the blazing, original luster on the obverse, while the reverse shows only a very...

1909-S/S Horizontal S PCGS MS-65RD.

1909-S ICG MS-65 RD.
Screaming mint-red color is at the upper end of brilliance for an original coin, yet the surfaces seem fully original and free from signs of "enhancement". This really does appear to simply be a cent...
216The Midwest Winter Sale on 02/12/2010$340.00
1909-S MS-60.
Terrific luster spills off this semi-key, and the surfaces display mostly attractive bronze-orange color. A reddish cloud of tone spills across the top of Lincoln's portrait, and darker gold-orange...
217The Midwest Winter Sale on 02/12/2010$190.00
1909-S NGC XF-45 BN.
Cocoa-brown surfaces look just about perfect from any viewing angle, and even closer examination reveals only the tiny contact marks that would be expected of normal exposure to light circulation. A...
218The Midwest Winter Sale on 02/12/2010$150.00
1909-S XF/cleaned.
Hazy patina is draped across the upper obverse, but overall, the surfaces are too pale tan-bronze to pass as original.
535The Midwest Winter Sale 2009 on 02/13/2009$500.00
1909-S/S PCGS MS-64RD.
Lush copper-gold patina embraces this entire Lincoln cent, augmented on the reverse by a light overlay of orange-grey patina. The grade is determined primarily by a shallow mark on Lincoln's cheek...
251The Collectors' Auction 2008 on 10/17/2008$725.00
1909-S/S PCGS MS-64 RD.
Plenty of shining mint luster brightly illuminates this Lincoln cent, correctly attributed as "S over horizontal S" on the PCGS label. Only vague areas have mellowed slightly, and there are a...
252The Collectors' Auction 2008 on 10/17/2008$450.00
1909-S ANACS MS-64 RD.
Pronounced yellowing of the patina is not unusual for Lincoln cents from the first date of issue, and this example has mellowed slightly to the bright chartreuse-orange sheen that aficionados accept...
452The Midwest Winter Sale 2008 on 02/08/2008$775.00
1909-S VDB Lincoln cent, F-12
Based on the separation of most of the wheat line details, it is apparent that this coin strictly grades F-12. Considering the excellent original surface quality and the lack of any problems, it is...

1909-S VDB Lincoln cent, ANACS F-15
The reverse grades fully VF-20 or better, as the wheat ears both show strong and full separation of the wheat lines. However, Lincolns cheek is quite flat, and there are several small nicks in the...

1909-S VDB Lincoln cent, PCGS XF-40

1909-S VDB Lincoln cent, NGC MS-64 RB

1909-S VDB Lincoln cent, ANACS MS-65 RD
