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

    1988-D CDDO-002?

    Trying to identify this one, which has some significant conditional issues. Based on photos I have examined looks to be: 1988-D 1˘ WDDO-001, CDDO-002, Coppercoins: 1988D-1DO-001, with other strike issues. I know I will learn something about minting from this coin. A curiosity or should I consider having this attributed given the expense?
    Thanks,
    Pete P.

    The 1988 W AM has to do with the initials.

      your coin has what appears to be counting machine damage. i doubt it will straight-grade anywhere. so even if you have a ddo or other variety, the expenses will most likely not make it doable financially.

      there are some varieities/errors out there that are worth grading even if details but this is unlikely one of them. will take some research but i'm not sure i know enough about this one to verify.

        With the shape of the second 8 in '88' I would be more inclined to say WDDO-02 than 01, but I am no expert by any means, I have seen nothing that accounts for the doubling on the mint mark on Wexlers pages or Variety Vista, whether machine, actual or PMD (post mint damage). Nor do I see any of the spread indicative of any of the listed error varieties. The "circle of death" around the rim doesn't help as a lot of the key indicators are in these areas too.
        Again, this is only my opinion based on what I can see.
