I may be a little different, but the 1922 no "D" and all the double die coins are error coins. These are coins I stay away from because they are not varieties. If all error coins were included in a collection there would be filled dies for almost all years. Back in the 1960's I had rolls of filled Libertys, dates with filled numerals and more. As for me, I just put in a coin showing the reverse to fill the 1922 no "D" and the 1955 double die is of the poor man's variety. As for the 1942/1 dimes, the three legged nickel, the 1856 flying eagle cent, etc. they should not have places for them in the coin books. They are just other error coins or patterns. Well, that's my opinion. Richard, Collectingusa
I too wish they would leave these spots out of the albums. They are part of a specialists set . I bought an old album for my Injuns, yep, the darn thang had the 94/94.
Hmmm I missed this one. Unless your building a grade specific set, avoid the g/vg/and the fines. In example, the SVDB is only a few bucks apart, all the way thru XF, and even into the AU/MS range. Why should I buy a F at $1100 when for 12 I can get an XF, for 13 I can get an AU. It's those real toughies that command a premium. You can buy a roll of SVDB's at any show, but can you find one primo 1924-S at 2 shows? Get me that 21-s with a full struck reverse and some hair on the head. The spreads hit at about VF, thats when you better know a 35 from a 40, then a 50. With study, you can do it.
