    That question really can't be definitely answered in my opinion. Errors and varieties can be found on any coin. It all depends on different factors. Age of the roll you are searching such as old vs. new rolls will give you different results.
    What type of errors are you hoping to find? You might search thousands of coins and not find any at all.
    Also.. You need to know what you are looking for! Not every strange mark or distortion is an error. A lot of times its just damage!

    Cents, because they make the most of those, so the odds go way up.

    Yeah gotta give a shout out to the Lincolns. $25 buys you a box of 2,500. Thats 2,500 chances to find one of the many cool errors the set has to offer.

    4 cents coins are more likely to be errors. They may be hard to find but you can be sure that they are 100% errors. :D

    Cents, You also have a better chance at find WAMs and larger DDOs (1995 DDO, 1983 DDR, 1984 doubled ear, etc), large cuds, off center and other various errors. Good luck!
