Question

The CherryPickers Guide doesn't have any mint errors- those are all die varieties. If you want errors, I would recommend The Official Price Guide to Mint Errors 7th Ed. by Alan Herbert. If you are interested in die varieties as seen in Cherrypickers, then there are multiple specialized books for each series that will list RPMs, doubled dies, OMMs, overdates, etc. Most coin series do not have nice tidy websites in which to look everything up. VAMWorld is great and so is coppercoins.com and a few others but they are the exception rather than the rule.

One of the most important things to do in numismatics is to set aside a portion of your coin collecting budget for the purpose of creating a reference library. Most people just have a RedBook and maybe a Cherrypicker's Guide but there are many reference books available.

Very nice catch, Kloccwork. You're learning.

Unfortunately there is no book 'out there' that lists everything. I am working (and way behind) on a book that does this for Lincoln cents ONLY, and it will be well over 2,000 pages when completed. If every known die variety of every date in every series were listed in a single volume with a few photographs per variety, the volume would have to be more than 15,000 pages thick to list all of it. What's more, about 10,000 pages of it would be stuff that most collectors don't care about, because premiums are low for minor stuff, and only die hard specialists care to collect them.

So, that's why we have the CherryPickers' Guide.
