I recommend you look back on the past several dozen threads in this sub-forum to get a handle on what is and what isn't an error. As you gain a little confidence, try posting your finds here. We would be happy to provide our opinions. For sure we haven't seen everything, but there are multiple folks here who have mint errors as their collecting focus.

The bette you understand that the more you can recognize what is and what is not an error, and when you see something "off" you will know whether or not it is something that can be produced during the minting process.
