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

    1959-D Trail Die for BJ's archive if I ID'ed correctly

    BJ,

    For your keen interest in this type, same gesture as Larry's...

    - Here's the oldest in my collected group. Hope I ID'ed it correctly.
    If not, will show you another one.
    - Will be on registered mail Tuesday.

    Sorry J, I do not see the trails on your 1959 Lincoln cent. The slightly exaggerated serifs on the EPU are normal for this year.

      Thanks BJ.

      I now know the distinctions. And I'm sure I'll stumble on one on my stacks of
      old cents soon. Will just send to you so you can explore and further propagate interest among us of this new variety.

      You, along with the other experts in this forum have squeezed-in a lot of knowledge into my head on this field, making it more interesting for me.

      Back to my diggings...... J

        Novicetoerr - Recieved the two coins that you sent yesterday and after examining them both, I found no evidence of "trails", RPMS or OMMs.

            The somewhat elongated left upper serifs on EPU are not trails but actually part of the design and intended to be that way. No other design element on the reverse shows any distortion or trail lines.

              I'm referring to the other thread containing pictures of the 1957 and 1959 coins i sent you.
