Is there a comprehensive "what do you look for when coin roll hunting pennies" thread? If not, let's make one!

I am looking for the following when going through penny rolls:

-1969S with entire obverse side doubling (except mint mark)

-1970S with obverse side doubling

-1972 no mint mark with obverse side doubling

-1995 with doubling of "Liberty" and "In God We Trust" on obverse side

-1998, 1999, 2000 with wide "AM" (The A and M are slightly separated from the rest of the word America on reverse side)

-Any Wheat penny regardless of condition

-Any 95% copper but non-wheat penny

What am I missing?

1983 p for double on reverse in the words ONE CENT, and another type with doubling on obverse in liberty and in god we trust

1984 doubling in lincolns ear(can be seen with the naked eye)

1992d/p Close AM(Very Rare especially the d mint mark)

1989 no vdb

2009 lincoln on the log doubling on reverse(this one has like 9+ different ones look it up to get some examples)

2012d doubling on obverse in the 2 and d

there are others in the 95% copper to search as well but I haven't gotten to em yet cause I keep all coppers regardless... I also sort all copper pennies down by year and mint mark so that when I am ready to search them for errors etc it will be easy... Some I know of off the top of my head are:

1955 doubling on obverse

1960p small date

1971s doubling obverse

hope this helps everyone out

wow... the varieties, and errors are far to numerous to compose a comprehensive list. spend some time browsing coppercoins website, and/or view the images posted here. also I believe member "coop" has a remarkable image CD.
(if I am incorrect about that - my apologies).
