Hi Guys. I am starting to get into some error coins, and i was wondering if there was a website that told you all the dates and coins that could be errors. I search for some websites that only have specific coins, and I was wondering if their was a decent website that told all the coin dates that can be errors! Thanks! Greg
Well, you'd do best to perform a Google search for errors. It is impossible (in my opinion) to obtain all the information to became an experienced collector/roll searcher/researcher. I would recommend you read as much as you can. Brief overviews at first, and then as you become knowledgeable, more in-depth examinations. And I also recommend (with extreme enthusiasm) Alan Herbert's book titled The Price Guide to Mint Errors 7th edition. This book has been completely beneficial in my roll-searching endeavor, and not to mention Mr. Herbert's professionalism, helpfulness and all-around pleasant responses when asking him questions regarding errors or his book by e-mail. I try not to bother him too much, but when I do, I get a fast and very helpful response. But, back to the subject at hand. Most error coin websites are interesting and informational, but some also contain out-dated wording and definitions - such as extra metal - and should be used only for their pictures of different errors and varieties. Some very reliable websites that I can recommend are: www.conecaonline.com www.fredweinberg.com www.mikebyers.com www.coppercoins.com www.omnicoin.com (search for error) www.coinpage.com (same as above) Let me end by saying welcome to the field of error coins, and if you start roll searching, happy hunting, and if not, good luck anyway!
Wow Thanks Fellas! I hope this information helps some other error coin searchers as well!! Thanks!!!!
