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

    They're all conventional die cracks. Having them on a proof is, of course, more desirable than a business strike.

        Are you asking if each one represents a different obverse die? That's for you to determine by closely studying the path each crack takes and the details of its irregularities.

                  If I could make a suggestion. When shooting pictures it is better to take the picture of the coin outside of the protective holder. A bit less glare and less distraction (staples, white boarders, and such).

                  Just a thought.

                    How can they have it both ways? Example 1807 cent die crack "Comet variety".
