I'm just sayin'!
On March 04, 2010 the highest-graded 1909 V.D.B. Matte Proof Lincoln cent sold for over $200,000. This is to date the highest price ever paid for a regular-issue business strike or proof small cent, including Flying Eagle, Indian Head and Lincoln cents. In addition to its numerical grade, this Red Brown example displays extremely attractive toning. The record price for any Lincoln cent was set in 2008 when a 1944-S Lincoln cent error coin struck in steel instead of copper was purchased by Laura Sperber from Legend Numismatics.
The beautiful 1909 V.D.B PCGS PR67+ RB Matte Proof now resides in the McCullagh Collection. This coin can be viewed along with other Matte Proofs on the PCGS Set Registry:
