<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ikandiggit, post: 771596, member: 16269&quot;]Last year I went through several thousand wheats and found very few errors. Of course I found a lot of ones that people think are errors, eg. BIE, &quot;poor man&#039;s doubled die&quot; (1955), machine doubling, laminations, die cracks, etc.. Out of about 15,000 wheats I found maybe eight or ten rpm&#039;s. </p><p><br /></p><p>It was a great learning experience. It show why errors are priced at what they are... they&#039;re <i>rare.</i> </p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;ve kept some of the most interesting items even though they&#039;re not overly-valuable just to have in my collection. </p><p><br /></p><p>Here&#039;s an example of one that I found (not a wheatie) that I&#039;ve seen listed on ebay for over $200 (didn&#039;t sell). The seller called it &quot;The Assassination of Lincoln Cent&quot;:</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i128.photobucket.com/albums/p180/barantonio50/82duscentdg1.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>It&#039;s not listed as an error and is worth only what someone wants to pay for it (or what I&#039;m willing to sell it for) but I like it and it&#039;s one that generates a lot of interest.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
