      Obverse Description: Lady Liberty with the word LIBERTY on her crown faces left with 13 stars around the periphery and the date positioned at the bottom center.
      Reverse Description: Large V (roman numeral 5) is centered in the design surrounded by an ornate wreath with UNITED STATES OF AMERICA * CENTS * around the periphery. The motto E PLURIBUS UNUM appears near the top between the wreath and letters STATES OF AME.
      General Notes: This date sees a drop in mintage from the 1908 and the most recent massive mintage issues preceding that. The 1909 plummets to about 11.5 million. Slightly scarcer in comparison to its predecessors because of how many were produced. Although high grade gems are tough to find. It displays strong strikes and luster ranging from flashy to satiny.
