<p>[QUOTE="Ferdyboy, post: 943515, member: 25361"]Your best bet is to get both volumes of the Cherrypicker's Guides---5th Edition Volume I (half cents up through nickels) and 4th Edition Volume II (half dimes up through all the rest including halves, dollars etc.) They aren't cheap, but they are worth it if you want to seriously look for variety and error coins. I picked up both of them for 45 bucks on eBay----they usually sell for that much EACH. There are other online sources for whatever particular denomination coin you are looking at as well. Google "XXXXXX varieties and errors" where the X's would be Jefferson Nickels, Lincoln Cents, etc. You can also check out CONECA's website----they have a very complete list of varieties and errors.
