Just the major stuff that's already been discovered in memorial cents:

1960D RPM#100/DDO-001
1960D RPM#1
1960D RPM#4 (minor but valuable)
1961D RPM#1
1963D DDO#1
1964P DDR#1
1968D DDR#1
1969S DDO#1
1970S DDO#1
1970S small date
1972P DDO (a few different ones)
1980P DDO#1
1982P DDR#1
1983P DDR#1
1984P DDO#1
1992P Close AM
1995P DDO#1
1995D DDO#3
1997P DDO#1
1999P Wide AM
2006P DDO

All are easy to see with a 5X loupe, and all will bring $100+ in nice red BU grades.

I don't bother with sorting out Canadian or other foreign, and wheat cents don't excite me unless they are better dates. Additionally, I NEVER use a "list" when searching, and I highly recommend against it for anyone else as well. It keeps you from being the possible discoverer of something huge and exciting. All you're looking for is something someone else has already found - search everything, and you could end up with something far better.

Essencially, we all do the same thing. The big difference is the method we use, and the tactic is the sam,e. Chuck has one tool that I have fouind very useful./ It is a pair of thin strips of3/4/1-1/2, or about. Each strip has a slight grove made in each one that is just deep enough to retain the coins in place, when used. One will hold about half a roll of cents, where the coins are placed in a fairly even orientation with teach other, to facilitate viewing, then the top astrip is placed over the other, and clamped together, and rotated, so the other face of the coins be viewed. Very simple,,but very handy. The eye is used to view the same design presentation, and becomes very sensative to differences. Well worth a try!
