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

    2023-D Lincoln possible attribute consideration - 1 of 2 due to image limits

    Hello all. This nice shiny came to my attention in early January. There are several potential variations IMO and I have not yet found any source that documents them. I have pinged several contacts on WhatNot, such as John Parker (@parkerpennies), who concur that this may be worth pursuing. Would someone please weigh in on whether my old eyes are deceiving me and if not, your recommended next steps.
    1. The date "3" shadow to the east.
    2. Possible cud to the mint mark, 3:00 to 5:00
    3. Possible doubling of "TRUST"
    4. Possible doubling of facial profile from the nose bridge down around the chin
    5. Possible spear on right cheek, running NW to SE
    6. Possible doubling of "LIBERTY" though more likely just camera angle and lighting
    7. Possible spear from lower earlobe then left WNW toward his head's edge
    8. REVERSE - "O" in "ONE" suggests strike slide
    9. "LB" beneath N in ONE "LB" suggests slip
    10. "B" beneath N in ONE suggests spur at 7:00

    Last night I saw photos here and this Monday morning they are gone.

    If you are looking for CONECA to attribute your coin, if they are the same coin denomination and potentially from the same working die (look exactly the same) then both may go on the same post. If they are different, it would be one coin per post.

    Go to this forums main page.
    Go the CONECA SERVICES
    Go under ATTRIBUTIONS
    Add a post under Attributions

    I highly suggest adding as much text detail as you can about each photo you will upload to add clarity. Photos of the affected areas should be as clear, focus and with minimal glare. I suggest adding a full obverse and reverse of the coin. Those should be orientated correctly so it's less work for them to look over.

    All other photos can be at whatever angles you wish, but are best at 90 degree angles so they can be flipped as needed.

    CONECA staff are volunteers and several may work full time. The response time may be long so it is best to add as much info as you can through multiple posts before they answer. If CONECA decides that they want to examine the coin in hand, then they will let you know.

    If you feel you have waited too long, you can contact Jamez ( yes, with a z). He can be found in the members list. Search for his name. Then click on the black cloud chat icon to leave him a private message.

    Happy hunting.

      Thank you, Gary. I have taken your guidance but my jpg attachments there are raising a PHP error. Moderator help has been requested.

        Jamez is an admin of the site. He should be able to correct any issues.
