Happy #VarietySunday, Instagram! Today we have a neat one! It’s a 1909-S over Horizontal S Lincoln Cent! This coin graded MS 64 RB! For an idea of value, an example in the same grade sold for $516 in June of last year on Heritage, and a normal example trades for around $400 or less. So about a 20% premium at this grade level! #ngc #ngccoin #ngccoins #coin #coins #numismatics #numismatic #coincollecting #collection #collection #collector #rarecoins #Lincoln #Variety #Varieties #Cent #Penny #1909
