    What year of the last 113 years 1909 to present date 2022.... would you guess,or say has the most variety coins from 1 cent though 50 cent pieces ?

    The most for 1 year ....pick a year ,and or guess or do some research... this should be interesting....to see what you think would be the year most likely the best chance to cherrypick a variety?

    And any denomination cent,nickel,dime,quarter, half dollar. That your best chance to pick a variety coin.

    Not that it matters, but in lieu of the 82, doesn't 70 have more than 7?
    Also, clarification: all variety, or variety and errors, and.... all variety and errors whether or not recognized by TPGs?

    2009 is a contender. 4 cent types, 6 quarter types, 5 dollar types. Now add in mint marks, silver versions, commemoratives and bullion issues...

    Struck for circulation and proofs of the circulation coins, i will go with 1909.
    Small cent 1909. 3 IHC with the '09, the first DDO on a small cent in the IHC '09 L/L, and 09 S - plus 7 LHCs with the matte proof. So 10 coins on the cent.
    Nickel 4 coins with the 3 proof, pfcam, pfdcam
    Dimes 6 with the 2 proofs
    Quarter 7 with the 3 proofs
    Half dollar 7 with the inverted s and the 3 proofs
    Dollar 0
    Gold $2.5 - 2 coins with proof
    Gold $5 - 5 coins with proof
    Gold $10 - 6 with RPM s/s and proof
    Gold $20 - 5 with the OD and proof

    So 53 varieties (mm as a variety) of US coins minted in 1909 and I probably missed some.

    I would have to say either 1964 or 1976.

    I thought so. That's why I went with the 1960 cent. There must be a hundred RPMs.
