Lot #910 - Collection of Lincoln cents in a Whitman 9405 album
Hammer: $1,325
Small Cents-Lincoln, Wheat
Rick Partisan Consignment. Only the 1922 No D is missing from this nearly completed Whitman album collection of Lincoln cents that range from 1909 through 1940. Cocao brown surfaces team with varying degrees of wear throughout with grades ranging from Very Good to Choice Uncirculated. The overwhelming majority of these issues are in the bottom half of the given grading range and includes the following notable examples: a 1909-S (F), a 1909-S VDB (VF++), a 1914-D (VG), and a 1931-S (AU, cleaned). There are many more collector grade issues that give this collection a particularly balanced appeal (ck).

Lot #871 - 1909-S VDB Lincoln PCGS MS-64RB CAC
Hammer: $2,900
Small Cents-Lincoln, Wheat
Growth Collection. There was a phase about ten years ago when MS-64 RB was considered "best" for the 1909-S VDB in terms of bang for the buck, and perhaps that holds true today. This example certainly seems on the verge of a red designation as either side gleams with 85% of the vintage brick-orange hue. Interestingly, this key cent was possibly struck off of a very slightly clipped planchet, since what appears to be a trio of tiny rim dings at first glance prove, upon closer inspection, to be almost certainly as-struck. An exceptionally detailed Lincoln cent with virtually no disturbances that would meaningfully preclude higher grade consideration.
