Our Mission: Redefining the Standard for Alternative Asset Valuation
Our Commitment: Education Without Barriers

At Variety Errors, we believe that expert knowledge should be a right, not a luxury. While others build paywalls, we build bridges. We are committed to keeping our resources free and accessible to all, providing the same professional-grade data and Alternative Asset Valuation that others charge for, at no cost to our community.

Our mission extends beyond the screen; we actively support educational programs and charities to ensure the next generation of collectors has the tools they need to succeed. We aren’t just tracking markets—we’re investing in people.

We believe that every collection is an investment. In a rapidly shifting market, collectors need more than just a hobbyist’s guide—they need high-fidelity data and institutional-grade tools.

Our mission is to provide the definitive Collectibles Market Index, empowering collectors to audit, analyze, and grow their portfolios with the same precision used in traditional financial markets.


The V.E.R.A. System: Data-Driven Rarity

The heart of our platform is the Variety Errors Rarity Aggregator (V.E.R.A.). Born from a need for real-time accuracy, V.E.R.A. is a proprietary lookup tool designed specifically for banknote serial numbers from 1950 to the present. (Future tools and apps are one the way for older, obsolete and error currency valuation.)

By aggregating production data and market trends, V.E.R.A. provides instant Asset Valuation, delivering three-tier pricing for:

  • Circulated specimens

  • High-Grade Circulated examples

  • Professionally Graded banknotes


A Complete Collectibles Ecosystem

Beyond our software, Variety Errors serves as a comprehensive hub for serious numismatists and investors:

  • Precious Metals Index: Real-time tracking for bullion and market-shaping trends.

  • The Online Store: A curated marketplace for rare collectibles, professional tools, and numismatic supplies.

  • The Archive: Digital access to the most comprehensive variety and error database in the industry.

Kyle Franck is a 15-year veteran of the numismatic industry and the definitive voice behind Variety & Errors: The Ultimate Guide to US Coins. As the author of this 800+ page annual resource, Kyle has dedicated his career to cataloging the rare and the misunderstood.

Kyle is more than an author though, he is a developer and a visionary who recognized early on that collectors needed more than just books—they needed real-time data. To solve this, he engineered the Variety Errors Rarity Aggregator (V.E.R.A.), a proprietary system that serves as the digital pulse of the banknote market, allowing users to search the value of their star notes and banknotes online, for free.

Through his YouTube channel VarietyErrors and his comprehensive website, VarietyErrors.com, Kyle has built a powerhouse that rivals institutional data providers, but at no cost to the community.

His goal remains the same today as it was at the start: to provide the community with the truth, for free, one serial number at a time.
