This forum is such a great place for all to learn and share knowledge so why don't we all share some of the fruits of our education !
Post your favorite variety and your favorite error pick. Doesn't really matter why they are your favs. Could have picked it on your birthday or it was the first find that set you on this crazy path.
Maybe we can all learn a bit from your finds.

Let's see em

I believe this qualifies as a Variety/Error. It's definitely one of my favorites.

And the 83 DDR, just a few more bubbles than I'd prefer though.

Couple of favorites.

First major DDO I found was a 1917 DDO-001 from a bag of wheats I bought from a dealer. I sold this one and have since found two more but neither is as spiffy.

First major CRH find was a 2014-DDO-001 which is in my collection

Post-Your-Favorite-Variety-




First and only 1999 WAM I have ever found which I sold since I don't collect these. Found in a bank roll CRHing.

My favorite error coin would be my 1975 P LMC Cud I found CRH and will stay in my collection.

Here's my favorite DDO. It's the 1984 "Doubled Ear" Doubled Die Obverse I found CRH through circulated bankrolls from a bank box. This is the only one I've found and will most unlikely find another one as they are very scarce to find in circulation or BU obw 1984 rolls.
