I would be leery of buying an 09'S VDB without having it attributed. Even though the MM looks close to the correct position of #4. It does not...
I see your point, and pretty much refuse to pay a high premium myself, toning has an originality factor. Most if not all bright white coins have...
This could easily be from a deteriorated die issue. When a coin is sprayed with plating it tends to build up around the devices, especially when...

I don't collect them. I just liked the toning on this one. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
A coin missing the MM or any other letter/device is from what is called a grease filled die. The area missing was debris filled. When the letter...

Maybe a Speakeasy. I have a couple of tokens found metal detecting from the early 20th century and wonder if this was one of that style. All mine...
How old is the slab? Just for grins. I am wondering this because either it is in a year slab where they went conservative (or still were). Or,...
It looks like yours is number 02, 84P had 11 known die pairs clash. http://www.maddieclashes.com/adc-1c-1984-02/
It's luck of the draw, I have never found an un abraded jailed Lincoln. We do see them here.
