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

    Errors and varieties are two different things. Varieties are doubled dies, re punched mint marks, over mint marks re punched dates and overdates. Errors are just about everything else.

    I typically don't answer these type of emails, since someone just slaps a coin down and wants some one else to figure it out for them. I know you have not had many posts in here, but I had to point that out. I like helping people who like to help themselves.
    I will help a little. One place you can look for varieties is at

    http://varietyvista.com. it's a pretty easy place to navigate.

    The other is Brian's varieties. He has photos of varieties for sale as well as listing for a lot of coins, to include nickels....

    One last piece if advice. When a photo shows a doubled die, and the photos show select areas to concentrate on, know that these working dies with a doubled die are pressed into a steel die, so the areas of doubling will not move locations...
