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

    2021 P peace dollar

    Got my new peace dollar in the mail today & it's beautiful! I put it under the microscope & see these unusual marks on the 1st few Tiera rays. I only bought 1 & don't have a point of reference for comparison. Is this a possible die variety or are they all like this? I can't get the full coin in the photo but can work something out if appropriate.

    Adding full coin photos. Bob- your thoughts?
    I know silver dollars are their own breed of coin and have a special following. Funny semi-related story. When I 1st started trying to understand coin errors I thought I would start with silver dollars because they were big and I thought I would be able to find the defects easier... I had an uncirculated roll of 1922 peace dollars + quite a few circulated ones. I quickly learned that there are hundreds of VAM's for just this one coin! I quickly became overwhelmed and put them aside and have not returned to silver dollars 3 years later. Perhaps this will inspire my return to the topic.

      I really do not have a clue on this coin. I have not seen one in hand either. I did manage to grab the link for the US Mint's high resolution phots where you can zoom right in on the coin. There is a little detail on those rays you point out, but not like what you have. I am inclined to believe they are just stray marks on the coin. It certainly doesn't appear to be anything hub related.
