[QUOTE="cpm9ball, post: 2321727, member: 24633"]Eric, there is a BIG difference between errors and varieties. Varieties are produced from a die that has been altered in some way, and there can be dozens, hundreds or more of them in circulation. Most often, things like doubled dies, RPM's, RPD's, etc. are considered varieties. Errors are totally different because most often there are very few of the same error produced. I'm not talking about something like a grease-filled die, die break or die crack because these are usually very common and not worth much as a rule. My point is that you will have to look at many, many coins to find a really nice error, and finding a good one in circulation is even harder. I have a 2001D Kennedy missing the reverse clad layer, and it is one of only two known for the date/mintmark. It didn't come from circulation. It came from a Mint bag! Chris[/QUOTE]
