Nice coins! If you do not mind me asking, are you finding these coins in searches, or acquiring through other sources?
When I was younger about 25-30 years ago, I found many Mint Errors. I saved them until I started to figure out what they were. But most of my latest coins have been from coin shows, coin shops and on-line purchases.
Same here. I have a few errors over the years from circulation. I am learning much about errors, since I never got the fever for them. Now they have sparked more interest, since the experts on this site know a lot and share the knowledge. Thanks to all the experts. I'm old school though and do not levitate toward slabbed coins of any type.
I was at a local show this past year and saw a quadruple clip, in fact the guy had a three or four clip set, It also was a pretty outrageous price. I want to one day add a graded example to my collection.
You have some amazing errors ! I buy some here and there but picking is what I enjoy and it isn't common to pick an error. The last one I picked was this 1924 lincoln strait clip that I posted over on LCR. ( yes it is a real strait clip ) http://www.lincolncentforum.com/forum/showthread.php?39678-1924-Strait-clip&highlight=1924+clip
