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

      California Dimples

      Here is a 2005 D California state quarter with dimples. The first photo shows (to me) recesses indicated by the blue arrows. I have seen these recesses on the Nebraska Chimney Rock "Lava" errors and on the Yosemite "Boulder" on El Capitan error coins.

      The second photo shows the dimples under the letters of California indicated by blue arrows. All of the dimples are ONLY on the word California. No other letters have dimples. The dimples get progressively more pronounced going toward the last "A" from the "C" (or counterclockwise).

        You may have something there,your photo is a little fizzy but I can still make out what appears to be Dimples..Maybe one of the experts would like to see this one..Hope it pans out ...

          It does look like you have dimples under the letters in AMERICA. However, the marks on the edge of the mountain are a different anomaly. Dimples always appear towards the center in a radial pattern.
