1909-S Lincoln Wheat Penny 1C PCGS MS 65 RD
Own a true numismatic treasure with the 1909-S Lincoln Wheat Penny 1C PCGS MS65 RD, one of the most coveted key-date coins in the entire Lincoln cent series. Struck at the San Francisco Mint during the first year of issue, this coin is part of a limited mintage of only 1,825,000, making it an essential acquisition for collectors. Graded Mint State 65 Red (MS65 RD) by PCGS, this high-grade example displays full original red luster and superb eye appeal—traits rarely seen in early Lincoln cents, especially from this mint.
The 1909-S Lincoln Wheat Cent represents a historic milestone in U.S. coinage as the first regular-issue coin to feature a real person, President Abraham Lincoln, on the obverse. Designed by Victor David Brenner, the obverse portrays a right-facing profile of Lincoln, while the reverse features two wheat ears, symbolizing America’s agricultural strength. The 1909-S without the “VDB” initials became highly collectible after the designer’s initials were removed from the reverse early in production, adding to the mystique and scarcity of this iconic issue.
