All this is new to me Steven. I have, well I havent counted lately numerous roll's that overwhelm me. I have encountered different way's to look at coin's pertaining to die variety, hub's. rotated and tilted. There is more that I didn't speak of. Alot of this hobby is going over my head right now. Thank's to everyone for trying to set me straight.

David, that is precisely why we (all) are here. To learn. For me, it doesn't get any better!

David,
I'm not exactly sure how to say it but when looking through rolls I get to a point where everything seems to look the same even when not paying that close attention but when something is not normal it kinda jumps out at you. As an example I found several 1955 class 6 obverse cents that way. I went through several rolls and the extra thickness of a few stood out. If I had been looking at just one I wouldn't have noticed at all. I think if you separate by date and mint then just search those and I think that when something is different you will know it.
I think I confused myself.  Hope I didn't confuse anyone else.
If anyone knows what I'm talking about please let me know what I think I said.
Steven

Perhap's your right Steven. I seem to dwell on 1 date and mint. I understand what your saying without confusion. I like to look at certin date's and mint's to focus on them. If I find something "great", if I don't Ebay. I greatly appreciate your help and other's with the abilities that you have. I'm going to have to find a different approach to finding Varietie's and errors.
Green I am but willing to learn.
Thank's for your comment's and all the help from other's.
David

Steven, I find if I have the dates, and mints separate, and then look thru a batch,then things begin to show the small differences. Yes, I beliseve you have the right idea. My case id that I have to separate all the dates, and then the mints, from the bank rolls. It's the hard way, but "some one has to do it"
