In a perfect would if a die variety has about 2000 or less it is a prime coin.&nbsp; Of course this varies by strength of varieity and popularity.&nbsp; The 1955-P DDO-001 has around 20,000 known but is huge and everyone wants one.</p><p>The only coins I can think of in modern time that has both a good chance of finding it and very good return on your money are, 1995-D DDO-003, 1999-P Wide AM and some of the bigger 2006-P DDO&#039;s - there are others I&#039;m sure but finding an error on a coin that has just been released is chancy at best and I think folks really need to wait until at least a year after it has been discovered.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
