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

  • 1982 small date copper Lincoln Center

    Hello everybody I have this 1982 small date copper Lincoln cent with some really cool color on the reverse. How does it get that way ? Does it affect price? And what's going on with Liberty it looks blurred. Is this where mechanical doubling comes in? On the reverse there's a die crack on the left side of the memorial between the n and the i in United continuing to the memorial. I got a lot to learn and at times it's going to be difficult for me to understand things as I am a disabled vet so if I seem confused at times you'll know why LOL thank you again

    the toning can occur a lot of different ways, legitimate and illegitimate. (i won't even try to list them all) if the toning is considered natural, is usually helps the value if it has what the market considers, appealing. bad toning in color and severity will certainly detract from value and condition. i'd say it probably detracts from the value of your coin, which probably isn't too much to begin with, so not much is lost. perhaps someone out in the world would pay a premium for it but it will be the exception, not the rule.

    i don't see any blurring on the obv.

    i concur, the reverse has a die crack. not uncommon.
