Prices On Error Coins?

One place I go when I want to look at error coin examples and current retail prices is:

http://www.fredweinberg.com/

I've bought many coins from Fred, he is one of the Best.

Mike Byers is another http://www.byersnc.com/sitemap.html

There are about 6 other error coin dealers on ebay that I buy from fequently.

The top 2 sources (Fred and Mike) have some very outstanding coins at very outstanding prices. These coins are Not overpriced as they are one-of-a-kind errors that are extremely rare and have excellant "Eye Appeal"

There are a lot of very common off centers, broadstrikes, clips, die cracks, die gouges, that can be bought on ebay for under 10 bucks.

Common doublestrikes are cool and can be bought for around 20 bucks.

Watch, watch, watch, error listings and you will see price trends . The price of most errors keep going up and the major errors which don't really come out of the mint anymore are skyrocketing.

Good luck searching.

My Favorite Part about Collecting Error Coins is that I have many one-of-a-kind coins that no one else has so the population is 1. And Also on a very common coin like the Bison to have some speared ones with a population of less that 1000 well, very cool to have that variety. I have a type set of Bison Errors that has about 40 varieties, all different and unique, very cool.

Plus it is fun searching, possible profitable. Go down to the bank and buy brand new rolls at FACE value of any coin and search them with a lupe. If you do this enough times, YOU WILL FIND ERRORS on BU coins. If it's a nice error then ebay it and you have a profit.

Enjoy the search, btw for major errors (Errors bigger than the size of a normal coin) the way is ebay or an error dealer, you will never find one in circulation.

Mike Byners is one of the greatest seller when it comes down to error coins. I admire his collection. The thing about error coins is not only do you have grading subjectivity, but depending on the type of serious errors, value can go up substantially higher. Also, this will depend on the type of coins you are looking for. For example, you wouldn't be able to find much error coins in gold. (possible but you will pay a lot more!)

Errorcoins, yes I have heard it. I am not too sure what is the current statistics out there so it's difficult to know if there are actually a lot more.

I personally collect world error coins when I can, but usally more focused on Russian coins. World error coins depending on which countries can be generally more expensive but lower ends US error coins are fortunately very affordable. Try countries such as Japan, Korea, etc. Now that's going to be VERY difficult. I tried and found them to be a lot more difficult then I thought.

Your welcome lax.

Here is an example of a perfect error coin auction. I got a good deal on (3) doublestruck dimes with free shipping from one of the best error dealers on earth.

Here's an example of an error coin that I feel is neither over or underpriced. It fit into my collection so I bought it. A very nice coin.

Sometimes I will pay more than what I feel an error coin is worth if it fits into my collection. Usally when I do this, one year later (being the error coin market and all) the coin has at least doubled in value.

There are also many other errors I bid on that I get outbidded on, that's the hard part.

Have Fun.
