I found it in a CWR no less. In my parts CWRs have the prevailing Cu percentages, but are rather "sterile" so to speak. Rarely do I find a wheat, dime or anything different or cool. If I do find a wheat, it is always a common 50's.
But this batch had the VDB along with 14 other wheats(still only 50s with a few common 40s), 3 dimes and a 1 cent Euro.
This is actually my second, but this one is in a little better condition.

Nice shape coin. Nice find.

I'm so sick over pennies....I frequently trade a dime or two for the whole "take-a-penny" container if sufficient coppers exist. That will get you some odd looks. |

Major congrats, Bluegill. I found a 1909-VDB a couple days ago myself. Birds of a feather hoard together!
Just curious, what kind of camera did you use to take this picture? That's really good resolution and magnification you've got. |

Congrats on a great find Bluegill. Nice looking coin!  |
If your percentages are low.. just sort more. If your percentages are high.. just sort more.

I have a Canon Powershot A630. I do like this camera.
