CONECA (pronounced: CŌ´NECA) is a national numismatic organization devoted to the education of error and variety coin collectors. CONECA focuses on many error and variety specialties, including doubled dies, Repunched mintmarks, multiple errors, clips, double strikes, off-metals and off-centers—just to name a few. In addition to its website, CONECA publishes an educational journal, The Errorscope, which is printed and mailed to members bimonthly. CONECA offers a lending library, examination, listing and attribution services; it holds annual meetings at major conventions (referred to as Errorama) around the country.

CONECA was formed through a merger of CONE and NECA in early 1983. To learn more about the fascinating HISTORY OF THE ERROR HOBBY and THE HISTORY OF CONECA, we encourage you to visit us our main site Here

    xxx8, Canada 1 cent.

    It is my opinion; you have a 20% Ragged Clip with rounded edges. What a beautiful coin.

    Definition: Defective Planchet - Faulty rolling of the ingot.
    Definition: Ragged Clip – Punched across the ragged end of a coin strip.

    You already said it was fake so you must have seen something that made you come up with this conclusion. What was your original reasoning?

    .My respect to you.
    You can post a photo of the edge of the coin. To give my answer.

    Tengo varias con el mismo problema no, de Canada pero sí de E.U.My family has worked in banks all my life, when Cuba was capitalist and in the communist system. Those currencies do not come out.
