WOW! The Holy Grail of Wheaties. Great save. My 1909s is missing one small detail, no VDB on the reverse. BIG CONGRATS

Wow, Like the rest said, that's an 09 S VDB. One of the tougher date Lincolns. Had one in my collection up until 5 years ago when I sold it for a nice profit. Don't leave that one in your penny jar !
