<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Kevin Mader, post: 3743538, member: 106826&quot;]Welcome to the world of Variety Collecting!!&nbsp; Never a dull moment when you CRH.&nbsp; Every coin has potential.&nbsp; If you go to the site I posted, you&#039;ll find a bunch of information about Clashes, especially those that folks are most interested in acquiring.&nbsp; There are also a number of links at the site that lead you to the broader world of errors and varieties (DDOs/DDRs, Cuds on Coins, Trails, Lincoln Varieties).&nbsp; So much to explore and have fun with.&nbsp; Many folks get involved in coin collecting to build sets or acquire old coinage.&nbsp; But many expand to the fringes of collecting and start to target varieties and error coins (oddities).&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>When I started to CRH, I would race through a box of Cents in a couple of hours: dump and look for the old coins (LWCs and IHCs).&nbsp; But as you&#039;ll see or already know, finding a dozen or less keepers out of 2500 may not seem overly productive.&nbsp; However, if you expand your hunt to include error coins, varieties, and high grade/MS coins, you slow down the process and make it more productive.&nbsp; For instance, finding 10 wheat cents might be worth a dollar or so.&nbsp; However, find one 1998 WAM Lincoln Cent...$8-10.&nbsp; 1999 WAM...maybe $100.&nbsp; So most of the value for me during a CRH is finding a coveted variety or a decent DDO/DDR.&nbsp; having a list of what you are looking for helps a great deal since there are so many to find.&nbsp; And of course, finding a strong clash or a clipped coin is fun...along with the LWCs and IHCs if you are lucky.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
