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

  • 2007 Utah Quarter DDR

    It looks like there's some doubling in the train on this 2007 quarter.

    just looks like some chipping to me, which is extremely common on statehoods, as well as grease struck-through.

    i'll post this comp for someone else to offer up an opinion.

      In my opinion, it's important to note the direction this possible doubling occurs. Someone this coin is to the right, left up or down. If it was all in the same direction, it might make sense.

      Working dies that have more than one impression on them are made of steel. So when that extra slightly noticeable impression is added to the working die, it's it should be shifted all the same direction.

      This could very well be worthless doubling and some die chips. All that has to happen is the die or coin shifts ever so slightly and the coin can be slightly damaged.

      Magnification is important. Most attributors will use between 10 to 20x to examine coins. If the coin in question require a higher magnification, It may be too minor to list or be considered as a variety. Metal movement can seep from the die and create weird effects, especially on worn dies. Die chips are another strange beast that confuse collectors on occasion.
