AJ purchased a MS 64 RB 1909 S VDB at the Long Beach coin show last Fall. Keep in mind he simply purchased it for me and didn't make anything on the transaction. I saw a MS 65 RB 1909 S VDB on his website and expressed my interest. To my surprise he offered me what I paid for the MS 64 RB 1909 S VDB from Long Beach. His response to this was "When I spend your money, I spend it as if it were mine. I thought the coin was worth it....period." Thanks AJ!!!!!!
Now back to my New MS 65 RB 1909 S VDB. This coin is what dreams are made of. I think AJ's photos speak for themselves.
You know. . . this must be said: the 1909 S VDB is such a fabled, admired and desired coin that it really stands high among many collectors, even above coins with a higher price tag! It really IS the quintessential collectible coin.
However, I am curious why you did not show us your new variety. That MS 64 RB 1090 S VDB must be a one of a kind!

Wow, what a stunning coin - way to go! Looks like it's 95% red too! And big kudos to Jack for being so fair with taking back the MS64 - he is one of the best coin dealers I know, really!

I know PCGS passed this coin so it has to be good, but that "S" looks a bit funkey to me.
