Rich,
I collect 'em.....by the hundreds I might add. I have been collecting them for 35 years and have about 1100 on hand. I have many of the major ones too! Many duplicates of course, but I am always willing to trade for ones I don't have. Many of mine are from the earlier years and are circulated. Most from the 50's to present are uncirc. In addition, I have many more that are still unattributed. That's where coppercoins.com comes in. I hope to get them all attributed with a standard numbering system soon. That way there, it will be easier for me to let someone see what it is I have, by letting them look at the pics on the site. If you manage to do die variety searches on coppercoins.com, many of the coins pictured are from my collection. Soon, there will be many more. I am always willing to trade, so if there is anything in particular you're looking for, let me know.

Well Rich, that may take a while, but I can indeed make you a list, but, with over a thousand of them, and many not attributed, it will be a bit difficult. I will start by sending you a list of the more common ones that you can see directly by doing a die variety search on coppercoins.com. They will be ones that I have duplicates of. As time goes on, I will send more lists, so be sure to save them all. As I stated in my last post, my aim is to get them all attributed, and inventoried before I go hog wild and start getting rid of some of them, but don't dispair....I am sure we can get a few in your hands that you may like. I am sure Chuck can attest to what I have as he is basically the only one who has seen the majority of them. I spent a week up there and we hardly got through them, but we did manage to take many pictures and add them to the site. (you should have seen the look on the airport security folks when they checked my bags and saw nothing but hundreds of little dots on their x-ray machines) Laughing

I think making an unabridged list is exactly what Chuck has in mind.

I have many minor RPMS too, and Im willing to trade with anyone. I mostly have coins from the 1960's, but will trade for variety coins of any country and of any year.

It would be interesting to get lincolnsence' opinion on what the following coin is. I have 2 of these and many of us have an example of this coin. It is the 1956-D in the link "Garry's cents"

http://groups.msn.com/USCoinCollecting/garryscents.msnw

I am also interested in purchasing a 1956 D with the S between the 1 and 9. An ANACS MS66 recently sold on ebay for $293. L&C coins has 3 of these in ANACS MS64, 65 and 66. The 64 looks better that the 65 and 66.

yes LincolnSence, those are some of my coins. Chuck also believes it is a doubled die of some sort or a strikethrough. I like it. If I ever sell it you will get first shot. Thanks
