<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Just Carl, post: 85597, member: 4552&quot;]When that sort of coin is first noticed the price and fame are great and then all of that fades as the quantity of them increases or the interest just fades. Some years ago it appears that everyone thought there were very few error coins around and then this lately interest in error coins has inspired people to start really looking for them. At one coin show I go to regularly there is one dealer that has numerous Lincoln Cent errors for sale for only a few dollars due to the massive amount now being found. This is very noticable by just reading books such as Looking Trough Lincolns by coppercoins or checking out the coppercoins website. I&#039;ve got 6 boxes of error coins all now in 2x2 holders and the value is probably a little over the 2x2 prices. Naturally some errors make the big time, get into the Red Book and the price soars. Example is the 55 DD Lincoln. The 72 DD not quite so much and the 95 DD is just starting to become expensive. However, I&#039;ve got several DD&#039;s from many other dates that are not in the Red Book so they are only worth a few bucks. Check out that coppercoins web site and see that there appears to be error cents almost every year. </p><p>As to this latest one it will probably end up like the Quarter extra leaf thing that started out in the thousands and is slowly dropping in value. However, I will start looking for one right now. I doubt it will make the Red Book unless several million people call or write in.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
