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

    2015-P Bombay Hook Quarter Minor DDR Discovery?

    I'm 99% positive I just found a very minor DDR on a Bombay Hook ATB quarter from my pocket change. The anomaly very closely mimics the Minnesota "extra tree" DDRs. It's located in the center, slightly north, and east of the head of the great egret. Look at the center island of grass. There's a V shaped gap. The "V" is made of two longer pieces of grass. There's normally nothing inside the V. This one has, what looks to be, extra grass. It doesn't look like a chip. Take a look. I have a pic of a normal for comparison. Also a nice chip above JF on the obverse for a die marker. I'd love for someone to find another. Thanks all!

    Looks like it could be a doubled die. Send it to Mike Ellis or James Wiles for an exam. Right now Mike is ill so it might be best to send to James. Send him the images first but place an arrow in the image to help.
