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.

    Evening Uruman. First this coin above you photographed is not a proof, it's a standard buisness strike so there is no relationship with the dies, they are definately different; between proof/buisness strike working dies. Second - what are the arrows pointing to? Are they pointing to a marker? I'm sorry from the photo's I do not see an RPM. You need a photo as close as this:

        Hello Uruman,
        I'm sorry if I affended you. From the photo's and arrows I cannot tell for sure what is being pointed to. I can maybe see a very minor split upper serif that is no where near where your arrows are. Again Sorry.
        Eric

            Trust me I know about lighting issues. I use filters and side lamp spacers to defuse light and it's hard to just photograph a copper without certain areas being over exposed. Then the programs we use can change the color between a shooting program and an editing program. I also wish I had an answer to taking nice colored true to form photo's of coppers. It's not that easy.
