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

  • 1961 DDO

    Hello all, this 1961 looks similar to 1DO-002 on the date but does not have the die scratches near the nose. Thank you for the help.

    Another thing I forgot is that I bought it as a proof. If that makes a difference. Thank you.

      Big difference. The fact that it's a proof precludes your coin from being 1DO-002 - that DDO happens to be on a business strike. That said it doesn't mean it is not DDO. You say it appears similar, in which way? 1DO-002 is a class 2 DDO but I don't see anything to indicate any such doubling in the pictures provided.

      As an FYI: 1961 Lincolns often exhibit evidence of master die doubling (MD-1-O-II-C ) - be certain that isn't what you are seeing on your coin...
