Collections - Some people understand - some don't.

Freud had a less than complimentary way to describe those of us who collect. I tend to blame it on being an only child and an appreciation of certain things. Anyone who seriously collects will tell you it's the thrill of the hunt and completion is actually a downer.

This section is devoted to error coins of various types. In recent years error coin collecting has become a very hot as more and more collectors become attracted to this fascinating specialty. Most of us become interested when we see a strange coin in a dealers junque box or are shown a cool example by a collector.

The type collection is our catalog, if you will, of major types - primarily consisting of certified and graded errors. Although, not a total answer, the collector can see what a real example of a given type looks like and, hopefully, avoid the many post mint manufactured errors.

If you are interested in error collection or just want to find out more, I would strongly suggest you join Error World - A free Yahoo group that is one of the best.

If you are a collector or just curious, you will find much of interest.
