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

    IMG_4254.jpegIMG_4252.jpegIMG_4255.jpegHas anyone ever come across a 1960 P proof Lincoln Memorial Cent small date that has a doubled 6 and pointed ends with a rounded 0 ? It is definitely a small date . I will provide pictures soon .

    Looking at the 0 now it doesn’t seem to be rounded , but the 6 is doubled ?

      The six on most 1960 small dates have this issue. I have a 5000 count bag of small date business strikes and there a quite a few of them with nearly the same issue.

      On varietyvista.com you can look up the doubled dies. For PROOF coins, they add the PR designation to the ddo number.

          You are welcome. The coin collecting hobby to include errors and varieties is best taken in a logical approach, along side comparing the documented finds on variety websites. In time, you will become well versed in it. Time, patience disappointment and rewards should follow.

          One more link that concentrates on the 1960 Lincoln Cent obverse:
