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

      I don't see an extra column. Columns 11 and 12 look like there is some abrasion going on. Can't really tell though. Like Jason said, a closer photo or pointing it out might help.

        Close spread on date, rear columns growing out into bay,cud connected to die crack running through middle of forehead to T in TRUST. It's very hard to take pictures with the dark cherry red toning. 001.jpg 20220116_161034.jpg 20220118_163640.jpg

          Well, there are no extra columns, hub doubling in the area you point out on the reverse. The date looks like a lighting issue, but I wouldn't dismiss it without either seeing it in hand or having better photos.

            Looking at the curve of the D mintmark it looks like it has some machine damage done to it.. if the angle matches up to the date, that may be what has happened there. The date photo is blurry when I try to magnify it enough to see the tips of the numbers in the dates. If the numbers are not wider than normal, and are not at close to the same height, suspect mechanical damage.

            I suggest going to coppercoins.com or varietyvista.com and see if there are examples of what you are seeing. Geeseh, testing my memory here, but the column issues I THINK existed in 1996, and those may be displayed on coppercoins.com.

            Some maintenance on dies which are scratches north and south near the columns can make them look like extra columns, but they are not.

            Again check a few websites to see if these possibilities have already been discovered.

                This is the first 3 bays on reverse of a 1996 p cent that I was looking at about the same time as the 1995 D. I haven't been able to find anything on what I'm seeing here.
