Special Issue Lincoln Cents

In this set, you receive the 1909 V.D.B. coin, also known as the "Wheat Ears" coin because of its reverse design. You also receive the 2009 coins. In addition to a fabulous set of 2009 satin-finish copper coins from both the Philadelphia and Denver Mints, you also receive a set of ceremony release coins. These are coins individually encapsulated and certified by ANACS. You receive a total of 13 coins. What a special set honoring a special man.
