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

    If I remember correctly, there are two 1969 S Lincoln cent doubled dies that have been documented. You can find them at http://varietyvista.com .

    One of the examples shows doubling that can see withe the naked eye, it's that dramatic. The other variety shows around the date, but it is far less than DDO-001.

    In my opinion, this looks like a well circulated coin with some sort of worthless doubling like mechanical doubling, or it was struck with a set of extremely worn out working dies. The 1969 year showed a lot of worthless doubling coins. The years 1969. 1970, 1971 and 1972 had their fair share of die problems.

    The link to the two DDOs

    The photos you have above are blurry, I can barely make out anything. If your holding a phone and attempting to take photos, I suggest you try putting a box on a table. Place the coin on table. Place the phone on the box, turn the camera app on and zoom in and focus on the coin and not the holder. Hold phone down on the box, steady with one hand and gently tap the shutter button.

      Hi .i looked at the second variety of the 69 s .Lincoln you mention.but the second variety i don't see any doubling like mine. click on the God photo and enlarge look at the huge noticeable doubling going towards the bottom of lettering. My doubling shows downward overlaping not side by side overlap
