uncle al Valued Member Canada 311 Posts	Posted 11/04/2010 4:08 pm Is there a place to go to where a person can get a list of all the different error names? I have several with different faults but I do not know the terminology. Stuff like the rim folded over, what I call blotches, extra material along the side of the letters but I do know what die cracks are. Report this Post to the Staff

sel_69l Bedrock of the Community Australia 21788 Posts	Posted 11/05/2010 07:37 am I am very appreciative of these links. One of the major reasons why I joined the CCF was to learn, although I have been around numismatics for a long time. I have about 50 or so major variety coins, and I now know more as to how they came about. Thank You. Report this Post to the Staff
