[QUOTE="kangayou, post: 985859, member: 23111"]bryantallard- The dealer was only partially correct. 1.) (dealer right) Most errors and varieties can not be found in the RedBook. 2.) (dealer wrong) Just because it is not in the RedBook does NOT mean the coin is of no value. Get yourself the Cherrypickers Guide Volume 1 if you want to know more about Cent & Nickel errors and varieties and their approximate values. Even the Cherrypickers guide does not contain all of the known errors and varieties. There are websites that provide more up to date information than any book and if you search and read the Error Coins forum you will discover a wealth of information. Like EyeEatWheaties mentioned, posting clear photographs or scans of your coins will allow the many knowledgeable collectors here on CoinTalk, to provide you with their opinions. Some folks say do not be discouraged, but I say "be discouraged" and then get over it and start the hunt anew :)[/QUOTE]
