New to Las Vegas and found a bunch of coins that appear to have error's. Don't have the slightest clue what I'm doing so here I am to learn.

Lots of info available here, I suggest you post a handful - if there is anything interesting they will get picked out & then you can start a thread for that specific coin.

Let's set expectations - yes, there are error coins. But the vast majority of "stuff" you find in circulation is just the slings and arrows of circulation, e.g. wear and PMD (Post Minting Damage).

What you need to be thinking about is how could that happen in the minting process and the answer is usually it can't.

With that said,
