new to this forum & collecting. Going thru mom's collection, 500+ pennies & nickles, 1899-1960s mostly. ALL are errors of some sort-double dates,filled, double die, die cracks, cuds,'frostys' - I am overwhelmed. Is there even a market for this type of collection? Is it worth going through each one & trying to sell on ebay? I've gotten a red book, but it doesn't appear to be geared towards FIDOs.
Where to begin? (P.S. I fear I might be addicted!)
any guidance much appreciated.

First i would look for any key dates or errors. Thats all i know to do except.....DO NOT CLEAN THEM

Coins with a frosty look aren't errors. They are probably proofs. Break down what you have by date and show some photos if possible.
