My heart skipped a beat.....but not what I was hoping for

I was invited to hunt a new spot by a friend yesterday. The hunt started slowly, getting skunked at 2 spots in a row. Then we decided to hit a new spot that my buddy had. He managed to dig 2 silver quarters, a Merc, and 4 wheat pennies. I dug a 1949 D roosie, and a nice wheat. When I brushed the dirt off, I had to do a double take on the date. Yep it was a 1909....looked reeeaaallly close for a mint mark, but it wasn't to be. I turned it over to look for the VDB......nope......Oh well it is my oldest coin to date, and I'm happy with it!
