Hi All, does anyone have suggestions on a comprehensive list of errors that can be found in one place? I've found a few onlonline but feel there must be somewhere that had a full directory of all known errors for a specific type coin (i.e. penny, half dollar, etc.). Does such a thing exist? Not specifically DD or other common errors, but a lost of all known varieties? Thanks!!

@jas, as far as I know, such a site doesn't exist and therefore you need to visit a variety of them in order to catch various specific types of errors. I should point out though that searching through prior CCF threads can give you a pretty good idea of what is out there.

agreed, such a list would be a monumental task to complete.. the various sites such as Variety Vista and Wexler's would be a good starting place.

I agree with using Wexler & Variety Vista and could add Copper Coins to that. There is a specific site
for searching US Nickels, the name escapes me atm, someone here might be able to add it.
Have fun, and there is alot, alot of info out there. Avoid anything with AI (Artificial Intelligence) not much
help with coins imho.

You may be confusing errors and varieties, for instance doubled dies are varieties not errors. There are different reference sites for each.
