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

    2006 Nevada Quarter Weird Gouge on first horse?

    This looks strange to me. especially the clean cut in the bottom of the hole in the horse. Thoughts?

    A die gouge is incused (sunk) into the die, so it would be raised on the coin. This looks like post mint damage, done after it left the mint. It is difficult to know what exactly happened. But it is not something that would be a mint error, in my opinion.

      No doubt this is post mint damage. Unless you were there when it happened, it would be impossible to know how it happened.
