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

    1984 D Question

    This coin has a CU piece going East from the MM. I used a loupe to inspect it closer and it appear's to be coming from the MM itself, but intact with the face of the coin. Could this be a broken punch?

    It could be a die chip, die gouge, or die dent. Let's just call it die damage. It's not a broken punch. If that were the case, part of the mintmark would be missing.

      There is also the remote possibility of it being part of another mint mark or a RPM. The 1960-D Lincoln cent has many examples of a partial bit of an extra mint mark sticking out similar to this. Of course to determine if it is or not, it would have to be sent in for examination to Dr. Wiles.
