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

    1915 5c Buffalo......? mis-placed "S" Mintmark..opinions please

    .
    Hello, I purchased this raw and did not notice that it has what appears to be a faint mis-placed "S" under the "C" in CENT, it went to pcgs as a 1915 P, they gave it a grade of MS64 (1915 P) so they did not notice it either,
    Opinions please.

    The coin is on it's way back to me from pcgs.

    Since you did not mention it to PCGS, they ignored it. If you wanted the coin to have a "possible misplaced mint mark", then it has to be stipulated on the submission sheet. Even then, if PCGS does not agree with what you see, they will not put it on the encapsulation label.

      BJ Neff is correct in what he is saying yoy must tell them about ever little detail in order for them to designate it otherwise they won't have any knowledge of what you want on the slab.

        Thanks for the responses, I'm not upset that they did not see it, I'm asking if anyone here has seen this type of thing on a 1915 Buff before?
