Man I looked at this one close and it scared me.... One of the reason I "NEVER" buy raw RED cents...
I could have never identified that this cent was played with.

If there was ever a case for SLABS boys,,, this makes the case in my book. To all dealers,,, if it's worth more than $100, and it's not slabbed,, keep it !

Merry Christmas !!!

the coin is a little off color... i bet it was lightly dipped and recolored... if you have ever dipped a copper cent... remember the color... shades and hues of that color are all bad

I agree, that one does look a little fishy but I wonder if I would have thought that before knowing that it was dipped...

That coin is not an MS-60 I would say AU-50 The high points are to wore down to be a 60 thats on the face. And its not a VDB so that takes away from it. Its just a 1909 S AU-50 Redbook list as $240.00 max but the recolor no I wouldn't give a $100.00 for it. I would like to have it to fill a spot in my Lincoln collection book. I might give $75.00 for it.

that coin will prob sell for over $200.... get cracked out of the holder and passed off as a raw unc to some poor person who doesn't know better

You're probably right about that.
