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

    For the Reverse, is that a light ring of wear around the coin? Close to the rim?

    IF it is, this may be done from a coin wrapping machine.

    The photos are better, keep up the good work, but it would be best to eagle eye those letters you mentioned to see if that potential coin wrapper machine did some damage to those letters. It looks like it goes right through the mintmark.

    It could be a coin counter as well. The coin just got caught up in a change counter and was standing still, running circles like the curly shuffle until it was rescued. It leaves a fine line on the coin and can damage some of the devices (letters, numbers, buildings) in the short time it is in the machine.
