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

    To interesting to be real

    So the story behind finding this coin.
    I'm from Louisiana and my Wife is from Kentucky.
    In early January we went to visit my Wife's family.
    Now before leaving Kentucky I went to a bank and picked up 20 rolls of pennies.
    While searching thru the rolls I found this coin.
    I wish it was real but I do believe it's PMD.
    Your thoughts are welcomed.
    Thanks

    First of all, thanks for posting images of the whole coin +.
    I am hoping to help avoid confusion (assumption) that maybe you could elaborate on your “ real”.
    you are hoping it is a real ?

      Yes Ronald that's correct. I think someone had to much time on their hands.
      If the Mint did this I'm going to Disneyland!

        Looks like a foreign substance on the coin and another coin got stuck to it. If you 100% acetone I would give it quick soak. The acetone will not hurt the coin but will soften or remove the substance.
