  1. There are a handful of good ones to look for, but naturally they're pretty scarce.

    1.  1909 V.D.B.  designer's initials on the reverse at the bottom.  The "S" mint mark is the rarer of the two mints that year.

    2.  1909-S (no V.D.B.)

    3.  1917 doubled die obverse

    4.  1924-D -- only 2.5 million minted

    5.  1931-S

    6.  1936 doubled die obverse

    7.  1943-D "Boldly Doubled Mintmark" (steel cent)

    8.  1944-D over S error

    9.  1946-S over D

    10.  The Granddaddy of all:  1955 Doubled Die Obverse

    Of course, for any of these, you'll have to kiss a LOT of frogs before finding a handsome prince, and the odds are stacked pretty high against.  And if you actually find one of these rarities, you'll need to consult an experienced coin dealer to make sure it's not a phony.  However, the fun part is the searching.  Good luck!
