How does the numbering system work? The system Numispedia uses is designed to be hierarchical to aid the collector in easily sorting his pogs (much like using a YYMMDD date format allows for easier digital sorting of documents). This intuitive approach should make it easier for collectors to look at a number and immediately have an idea of which pog is being described. The number consists of three units. In order, they are: the series, the denomination, and the specific pog. The only hangup to this is that the third unit is somewhat arbitrarily assigned. But, in order to maintain harmony, Numispedia has adopted the order used by the AAFESpogs .com website (allowing for easy conversion between the two systems ;) ). The first unit is simply the number of the series. The second, because looking at three sets of numbers in a row would be annoying and confusing, is a letter: A, B or C. This letter represents the denomination, A being a nickel, B is a dime and C is a quarter. The third unit is always a two digit number. That means the first dime in series two would be 2-B-01, not 2-B-1. This helps in sorting and also differentiates the third unit from the first. To find out the difference between 2-B-01 and 2-B-02, see the checklist below!

What about varieties! If you find a variety, just tack on a lowercase b to the standard number for that pog. If you find a variety of 2-B-01, the original would become 2-B-01a and the new variety would be 2-B-01b. Of course, we only consider changes in design elements to be "varieties". What you will usually find is a pog missing the OEF/OIF overprint. If a pog is simply printed off-center that is called an error. To describe an error pog, give the appropriate number and describe the error: 2-B-01b, 30% off-center. (And please always give us a heads up if you find a new variety or error! Pictures are great!)

When there are "with/without" varieties they will always take this designation: The variety with an overprint will receive "a", whereas the version without the overprint will be "b". Example: 6-C-07a versus 6-C-07b. This doesn't necessarily speak to the scarcity of one over the other, but does provide a uniform system of numbering. Only "withs" with a known "without" will take the "a" designation: meaning 3-C-03 is sufficient. Any other varieties found to be common (that is, not simple errors) will be dealt with as they are discovered.
