As already noted you could go to https://www.coppercoins.com The person that has that web site has two books out on just Lincoln Cents. He has explanations on every type, grade, variety, etc. in his books and on his web site. Another site is The Lincoln Cent Resourse There too are examples and explanations of the ones on your list and many, many others. If you have a 2008 Red Book or possibly other editions, you would see on pages 390 to 394 many explanations of error coins and approximate values.

Just a little off topic here but not worth a new tread...Aren't VAMS given to coins that have been altered by these two gentlemen, Van Allen & Mallis? And even though altered still carry a premium through some VAM collectors? Thanks all.

Van allen & Mallis have published a book that helps identify the various pair dies on morgan and Peace dollars. The coins are not altered but identified by die pair. The scarcer die pairs cary a definate premium.

The 1982 DDR is a small date zinc coin, only two have been reported and the first one was discovered by a member here about two years ago. I believe that both coins were found in the New England area.

[quote]The CherryPickers Guide volume 1 4th edition would help. It is out of print and somewhat hard to find1[quote] It is out of print because the 5th edition is the current edition. Is there some advantage to the 4th edition?

I search for most of the varieties on the above list on a daily basis; it can be tedious, but it's fun at the same time. Especially when something turns up! The only changes I would make to the above list are: 1960d Small Date over Large Date DDO1972s DDO (Super Rare, only a handful known) 2001 DDO2004d DDRand the coppercoins.com numbers for the two rare 2006 DDO's are 17 and 18 (18 is the Doubled Ear)

Steve199... at the time of the original posts, the 5th edition had not been published yet, that's why they're talking about the 4th . It definitely was hard to find! The few that were available that I saw all had quite the premium tacked on. I'm *really* glad a new one came out.
