<p>[QUOTE="Just Carl, post: 147767, member: 4552"]johndo: Just for your information as someone already noted try coppercoins.com. Better yet try to find a copy of one of the books writtem by that guy from coppercoins.com. They are called Looking Through Lincolns. The reason I say this is I go to about 4 or more coin shows a month and a really big increase is noticed for error coins. And since just about the whole world collects pennies (cents), there are a lots of error coins and you may have some and not even know it. For instance if you look through the Red Book there is a section that describes some of the type of errors you may encounter. In that book or web site from coppercoins they only cover a small variety of Lincoln cents that are the most sought after. However, with the increase in error coin collectors even slight offsets are beginning to bring a few dollars. Enlarged rims, doubled of rims, missing letters and numbers, faded or extra heavy letters, etc. It could be profitable or just fun but keep on looking.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
