Many of you may remember how sought after the 1909 V.D.B. Pennies were when you were a youngster. Well, they still are today! The reason is simple, this was a unique "One-Year-Only-Issue" that was obviously distinctive from all later dates of Lincoln Wheat Cents. A Collector Favorite! This is what collectors love... coins that are different, unique, rare, hard-to-find... coins that they can show off to their friends, coins that other people don't have.

It replaced the Indian Head Cents used since 1859. The obverse featured a portrait of Lincoln and the reverse was a simple design bearing two heads of wheat surrounding the words ONE CENT. • This U.S. coin broke all tradition by placing the image of an actual person on a coin made for circulation. This alone created a lot of controversy.
