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

    3leg buffalo....worn really bad

    no date or mint mark visible. the question at hand is....is this really a 3leg error? and if it is....is it worth anything being so worn?found this in a huge lot of coins i recently purchased and still going thru. looking for errors of any kind.

    To be honest with you, it look like it has been fooled with outside the mint. But that may be a mote point since there is no date or mint mark to verify this as the three or three and half legged buffalo variety.

      Post mint damage. Notice the indentation in the area where the legs was?
