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.

    Question about Lincoln's

    Hello. I just have a question about a few Lincoln's I have. I probably have 7 or 8 of them that look like they have been sandblasted and I'm wondering how they got this way. They all also have more of a beige tint or color to them and are all this way on the Obverse and Reverse. Most are from the mid 1970's and a couple from 1983. Thanks.

      Yes..... These are also all from the Denver mint. Im wondering if they missed a polishing process or possibly something under the lamination. I dont know what the actual process is.
