List Of Coins In Pocket Change To Look For ?

*revised list*
How about this? a list of the coins in pocket change with a " value " lets say over 10.00 ( or we can set a price )if someone finds one. we can even add a estimated price of the coin in circulation decenbt condition
if I see a price of $35,000 next a penny darn right i'll and others will search . If I see a price of estimated value to be 10 cents or a buck its prob not gonna be a big deal to spend lots of time looking at that year coin
for that specific thing wrong with it

copper coins, the problem with looking at each penny is people just getting started ( like me )dont even know what to look for , for example I would not have known about the 1988 drv-006 by looking at it , I would have thought it is a normal penny . I read about it some where and now I'm on the look out .
so the list is not the absolute guide it is a guide for people to say hey I'm gonna check my pennies but let me pay special attention to these certian areas on certian year coins becuase they are known to have varities, errors and double dies so on

The info is all there ,its just spread out onto diff sites . This list would save people from going to site after site looking for all the info on DDO ,ddr,repunches,rare varities,low mint dates and anything unsual about the coin giving it value

well if anything you guys can just add to the list or subtract and i'll use the list and a few others that are novice can use it as a guide

A guide to look AND CHECK ALL OUR PENNIES , but be special carefull to pay attention to things others have found
like the repunches you mentioned and other coin you think are rare


PENNIES 1959-2010( know to exist ,errors , varities,scare ,rare)

about limiting yourself to a list .


its not limiting , its a double check

meaning you can look at all your pennies , but before you pass it to the side check for something on the list
like a diff style mint mark , a repunch , a DDO .
use other people finding to make sure you atleast check the coin for the know stuff that exist before you slide it over.

Its great someone discovered the 1988 drv-006 I thought it was normal THOUSANDS looked at it.
lets say for example

coppercoins looks at a 1988 reverse side for 100's of pennies and didnt catch the diff initial styles
but someone else did . Maybe if copper coins known at that time he would have looked at the coind with a diff eye for really looking at the initials.Maybe some got away he didnt know about before the 006 was noticed

My apologies to coppercoins if he found the rd-006 . But just knowing it exist can help others search for it

The first 2 are pretty exhaustive lists for Lincoln's.

The 3rd one is a pretty comprehensive list (all in one place) for all modern coins.

The 4th I'm not sure. I don't have a copy, but I'm sure it probably lists "mainstream interests".

It's fine to use a list if you are using it solely for the purpose of chacking back on something found to see if what you've found is known, but more so than not the lists become habit forming in only looking through dates listed. Not good.

Secondly, the ONLY way to know what's not normal is to look through a LOT of normal coins and pull out those that are truly unusual. At first the pile might be pretty big, but as you gain a little experience you will notice that some of what you're pulling out is common and probably not anything collectible. I stand by my statement that forming a list and using it is likely to create a bad habit of only checking for the coins on the list.

When I search I check for all known doubled dies area of doubling and found a year that had not been found yet. I knew there were the DDRs for the 2004 Lincoln cents affecting the EPU. So I check all memorials in this area and found one that was a new find.
2002-D

So far only one other example has been located that I know of. So look for everything possible for a series of coins.

Found this... it's a 2000D Lincoln Cent. I am unfamiliar with some of the terminology, but is this the " Close AM" to which you refer?

if its inaccurate change it guys !
add to it , take away

nothing wrong with a ever evolving changing list
