Wheat errors?

[halfhunter]

I have a boat load of wheat cents from mainly 40s and 50s. Any certain years I should look at for errors? Thanks

1955 doubled die

 

[TypeCoin971793]

1958 Doubled Die, 1955 Doubled Die, 1936 Doubled Die, 1941-S ? Doubled Die, 1943 D/D, 1944D/S, 1946 Reverse Doubled Die, plus literally a hundred others. Buy a copy of the Cherrypickers' Guide or some specialty book on Lincoln Cents. I learned a lot from these books; they may serve you well too.

EDIT:

The name of the second book I was alluding to is called Looking Through Lincoln Cents by Charles Daughtrey. It has a more comprehensive Lincoln cent error section than the Cherrypickers guide, but I would still get both.

I have the official red book- A guide book of Lincoln cents. That may help you. Also the cherry pickers guide like typecoin971793 said. Only error I have found so far I personally own is a 1953 with a double 3 stamped.

Unless I'm mistaken, that 1953 is not a double die. It was caused by die deterioration. It is mentioned in the Cherrypickers' Guide as well, but as an example of not being a double die.
