I personally do not think so. To me it looks like a lot of the red marking has just worn off.

I'm just saying because this is the way i found it and I kinda got creaped out.
Also, the red on it looks kinda clearish looking at it so, I mean I just thought it was unusual is all.

I used to work in a video arcade, we used red painted quarters when somebody said they lost a quarter in a machine
that way when the repair man showed up we could track which machines needed to be repaired

Same type of thing.

This was also a common practice in jukeboxes. Business owners would plug a few marked coins into the machine to spark intrest or keep the music going and the vendor would reimburse the proprietor his marked coins when he came buy to collect the coins from the machine.

well whatever you did to take the pic of the coin above, do the same thing and take a pic of the 1909s VDB

I've tried, multiple times, I don't know what it is, mabey the color reflection or something.
But, either way, that is the best picture out of my attempts to make those coins clearer.

Nice find! Definitely EBAY material. You would probably get a small fortune for it!
