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

  • 2005 p nickel doubled?

    I came across this 2005 bison nickel that has another line above his back that seems to be a doubled image of the back the line is heavy under ta of states and light till under the f in of it shows again pretty good if you look at the image showing the largest area of the coin the shape follows the bisons back all the way thru i cant find anything about this only speared bison i think i may have something finally im going to have someone else check it out today that owns a coin shop in my area

    Ive added images with color coded pointers and discriptions to make this easier to see and understand i also did a photo overlay and moved the bison into place and slightly transparent to show that every detail across the coin matches up perfect to the normal bison beautifully hopefully this helps and gets the ball rolling ive not had luck finding many error or veriety coins that are known but i found my own and im excited to get attributed for this discovery also i would like any advice as to which grading company i should send this to

        Its 2 more images of the areas ive pointed to with arrows if you look at the inner details of the 2 finger looking pieces coming off his back they match the part of his coat right below them this is why i did the overlay to show that all 4 areas match his profile in 1 shot

          I already mentioned I didn't know what it is, and I am sorry about that. Please be patient so we can see if anyone else has an opinion...OK?

            Like I said in attributions, I worry this is something coincidental, like some type of damage

              Who do you recomend i send it to for verification i had my step siblings dad look at it that owns a coin and jewelry shop and he agrees it looks like real doubling of the area where it comes from bisons back the mark way up high is a hit this i know for sure its a lot easier to see whats going on with the coin in hand i have purchaced a tablet which seems to do better with my microscope i may have to try to get new pics and also a full face photo so you can see truly how easy this is to see im just looking for a recomend on where to send this type of thing im not worried about the cost to a certain point of course but im not going to cry spending 100 bucks or so if it turns out to not be what i think but im confident this will be something

                When we open up nickel attributions you can see if Stephen wants to see it in person. This is weeks away. I still do not think it is a doubled die, but he can try and in hand examination.
