Is There Any Books About Error Coins

newone

I collect coins as a hobby(some hobby, I've been doing it for 40 years) and have attained a few error coins doing so. Could any one tell me if there are any books about error coins? I would like to see if any of my coins are listed and the value of them. Also could you tell me the names of some of the books and where I could buy them. Thanks!

I don't know of any books that have up to date values. The market for errors right now is changing almost daily!!! If you just want a good reference book that explains errors I would suggest The Error Coin Encyclopedia by Arnie Margolis and Fred Weinberg.

The 4th Edition of the Error Coin Encyclopedia is
at the printers, and should be on the market around
the beginning of March.

It is $39.95 plus postage when issued, or I am
taking "pre-publication" orders at $35 delivered.

It is almost 500 pages, hardbound, with the entire
minting process explained and illustrated; However -
there are NO prices in it.

Are you refering to errors: clips,off-center,double struck etc. or varieties: doubled dies, over mint mark ?

Coppercoins website is the best for Lincoln varieties, but Chuck doesn't do errors!
