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

  • year? Clipped Egyptian coin?

    Got this old coin that looks like its been clipped to me, but i dont even know for sure where this coin is even from, i guessed Egypt because of the sphinx. As for the year, no idea, but it came out of a bag of coins that dated no newer than 1960, so its at least 65 years old, one little spot that i havent even checked to see if it comes off of it yet, as found. I have 3 more, BRIGHT yellow, non clipped examples out of bags of "free money from around the world" that i believe were like a salesmans sample, or came with westinghouse refrigerators around 1960. There were like 8 coins in each bag, ALL uncirculated coins from around the world, I want to say all the continents except the frozen one, and Australia

      In my opinion, it looks like a large sphinx, made between 1953 and 1958.
      I dont know enough about this series, nor the language.
      I dont believe Google translate will do dates.

      It may be a 1957.

        if you have a foreign catalog, it should have the numerals of various countries in the front index. it took me a while but i can usually recognize the dates on these and some more middle east coins.

        lets see if i can do this off the top of my head?
