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

    US Mint at the ANA distributing TRAIL DIE QUARTERS!

    I purchased about $40 face value of 2015-D VA Blue Ridge Parkway quarters at the US Mint Booth at the ANA on August 13. I searched through some of them and found two "Trail Dies." The quarters were available at face value from a money changer for $1, $5, $10 and $20 bills. It appears that about 20% of the coins were from one of these two dies.

            I'm sure a few can be found along I-80 at the toll booths throughout Chicago as well! I think they have them placed like every 2 miles.
