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

    1956-D Lincoln Cent RPM

    I have a 1956-D Lincoln Cent that is an RPM. I request a little help with this one.
    I THINK its a D/D/D or more.

    I would "assume" this would be listed on VarietyVista, but I cannot find an obvious match.
    Coppercoins might have a match. Most convincing ones seem to be in the RPM 34-40 range.

    Evening Gary
    This one I think I may have seen before, not sure. It will take me a while to look through the Wexler Listings I have, and I may have it setting in a roll if I didn't see a Wexler Match.

      I have an example or two of that one as well. IMO it's a D/D/D/D but I've always considered it a bit too minor to list, so never sent it in. I have similar 58-D's with triple and quad minor RPMs in same boat. Not sure if there is anything on Wexler as I think many are not photographed yet.

        Evening,
        I didn't look through 82 Listings, that was the last # I had. If I remember correctly I think I was told Wexler was around 100.

        BTW there are MANY D/D/D's in this 1956-D group, let alone D/D/D/D. Without good marker photo's in the future, this one still may not get listed without a marker on the coin we can use to I.D.. Remember overlays take a lot of time and most seasoned collector's can narrow down the posibilities by the date in contrast to mintmark position. If you have multiple dies with similar position, on a minor RPM, it becomes very time consuming figuring out if it's new or a die already listed. Also, die scratches - for markers are fine as long as we don't have a gouge or a clash. once we have a die clash - all the previous scratch marker's are usually almost if not all gone... I'm not saying this wouldn't be listed - it would for sure be a 1000# for a minor. Just my two cents..

          I like this MM. Congrats and wish there had been a clear answer for you on a variety number.
          (for some reason it reminded me of 1952 D that had a similar lower serif.)
