I hope it is! That would be quite a jackpot!

That said, even if it is just an 09-vdb, I'll bet ten or twenty years from now it will be worth more to you than any S-VDB you buy.

 

only thing he said was that it was in bad condition but still ill post pics

 

If it is an S, its still worth alot of money, in a low grade.

 

that would be neat if it was! good luck!

 

any pics yet??

 

he didint bring it up he forgot........ ahhhhh ill ask him to mail it

 

oh no, hopes so so high, then snatched the carpet right out from underneath you, but atleast your still getting it.

Don't forget to tell us what happens when you get it...

 

If he mails it make sure you tell him to put it in between a fw peices of cardboard and tape the heck out of it. People in the post office would notice a coin and shake the envelope so the coin flys out. Make sure he makes it so it is not apparent that there is a coin in there. And when you get it make sure to look for the initials on the back, bottom. If it's an S mint and has the VDB on the back, bottom you've struck it rich regardless of the condition. Good Luck.
