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

    1930-s Lincoln cent dbl-die?

    Hi folks. Not completely new to the site, but I haven't been here for a LONG time. Anyway, I've got me what looks like a 30-s Lincoln with a doubled die. Sorry that I haven't got a better photo, but you can see what you need to see. The mint-mark and the "9" are clearly doubled, and so is the top of the "1," although it's very hard to see. Everything else looks normal. I'm no expert about these things, so I would welcome any comments from y'all.

    Mintmarks were added after the working dies were created, so in this instance, it probably does not relate to the doubled die.

    At http://varietyvista.com, there is only one DDO for the 1930-S year, and this isn't it.

    Same for https://coppercoins.com

    Photos are best shown here at 90 degree angles, so we can download them and enhance them and flip them upright if we need to.

    The photo's are just too grainy to tell if this is machine doubling, but in my opinion, I suspect it is machine doubling.
