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

    It is probably a glue of some sort. It should come off rather easily.

      It was from one coin accidentally adhered to another - then they were broken apart. Not an error.

        I made new rule: HERE
        C) Do Not: item 4

        Want to keep the discussion open and avoid PMs.

        It is very rare for the object that was struck thru to remain on the coin. It can happen with thick wire, extra metal and (once in a while) thick grease. You would not have a coin with this much material adhered to it. Furthermore, the coin would be indented inward from the the material, and probably have a finned rim reverse.

        It's just some kind of adhesive or polymer.

          Thank you for your answer. That explains alot. Someone had too much time on their hands and filled the indent on the penny with glue. Your awesome. Have a good evening.
