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

        That's a nice example of an RPM. Good photo, too.

          Excellent

          Excellent coin, congradulations.

          I was wondering, with this great photo, it seems to me the date is doubled. Is this correct? Seems like a larger date UNDER a smaller date.

          This very obvious D over D RPM is not the same as the one shown in Cherrypickers CONECA: RPM-001 (Volumn 1 pg. 121). How would this RPM compare to the Cherrypicker variety (CONECA Top 100 variety)? How would a value comparision be calculated? Could fcloud get this variety attributed to himself (or is this variety already attributed?).

            Merlin8971, to me the date doubling seems to be due to the lighting and metal flow. The RPM looks to me as though it is coppercoins RPM #1, which is CONECA RPM-001, although I may be mistaken. I haven't compared the coppercoins picture with the one in my cherrypickers yet. fcloud, if you still have the coin you might check coppercoins for the die markers to be sure.
