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

    Hello BJ , You sure do get some good coin photos. I'm really old fashioned and like to make my own things. All I have is a little 50.00 Wal Mart webcam and it get's kinda good coin photos without any help . I made a lens for it that slides over the webcam and added a tube to this and can put as many lens in the tube as I want to. Now I can get a photo of something so small it can't been seen with a 10X loupe. Imagine that

    this is the easiest thing I have ever seen to use. when I take a photo I don't have to download it to the computer like the bothersome digital camers have to be done. The photos are already on the computer soon as I take them.

    I have a digital camera and it used to take me hours to get a good coin photo now I can do a great photo of anything regardless of how big or how small in a split second.

    The photos I was sending you thru the emails and the ones I was putting on here was done with this cheap webcam before I designed the lens for it. I would copyright this homemade item but I believe I have seen something similar to it on ebay made for cell phones. Troy W.
