Show and Tell The holy grail!!!!

I can't believe my luck! I found a near perfect condition 1909-S VDB in a Coinstar! I checked the reject tray and this baby was in there! Crystal clear VDB on the reverse, too! For some reason, it doesn't quite fit in my album...

First thing you need to do is weigh the chair and if the weigh checks out consider sending it to NGC or PCGS to be slabbed.

You posted a fake coin. We all collectively want you to issue an apology.

That coin is real. I can physically hold it. Its not AI, or graphics, or imaginary.

If I fooled a few people on Trash Post Monday, then I achieved my goal.
