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

      I did some reading on this kind of collar clash and the " Reeded " look in the clash comes from chips in the collar .
      We'll know more when Mr. Potter, lol, finishes the article. That's what I read about it , Jay ....

        The reeded look should come from where the rim gutter of the die comes into contact, or clashes, with the collar. The clash transfers the reeded image to the rim gutter on the face of the die.

            Yes, that's what I read. It actually shows an image of a quarter die that clashed with the collar. It shows the grooves created from the die clashing with the collar. Pretty cool!

              This one came into the CONECA table at the Michigan State Numismatic Society Spring Convention. It is one of the best I've seen and I got good photos to update my Powerpoint presentation on Clashed Dies.
