The 1909 Lincoln Cent, known for its Wheat Reverse, is one of the most sought-after collectible coins in the United States. This coin was the first year of production for the Lincoln Cent, featuring a portrait of President Abraham Lincoln on the obverse and two wheat ears on the reverse. Minted in both Philadelphia and with the rare "S" mint mark from San Francisco, the 1909-S V.D.B. variety, which includes the designer's initials on the reverse, is particularly valuable among collectors due to its limited mintage and high demand.
