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

    2000D Cent

    The slimmer upward tie angle beginning in 2001. Also a curved tie, next to the upper tie angle change. (First and second picture)

    2000 and before shows a flat shelf tie angle. (Third picture)

    This 2000D shows a remaining removed doubling of that flat shelf like upper angle of the tie and the slimming of the tie. Out and down. Doubled earlobe.

      The earlobe doubling is attributed as 2000D 1C WDDO-001.

      The early new tie style is a transitional error,
      though the other part of the 2001 bent tie design is not applied. It’s an image coordination never released.

        Interesting observation about the change to the bowtie in 2001. It looks to me like the 2000 bowtie would cover the 2001 bowtie on the left-hand side, so I don't think that is what is showing on your coin. It looks to me like die deterioration which shows on your image of the doubled ear. I think you can see the very beginning of the die gouge in front of the ear in your image in the image on Wexler's website. You definitely seem to have a later die state given the lack of beard detail.

        Also, if you look at the image for the 2000-D Lincoln cent on PCGS Coinfacts you will notice the markings on your coin on the lower side of the bowtie of their coin.

          I just don’t see a wide tie. I’m sure wear would be much larger, if the tie top was wider, as it sits, both points offset if it takes a thinner tie top JUST to make a deterioration estimate be the original expected measurements of the wide tie top. I would expect wear to make images more wide, due to the expanding. Then add any effects of deterioration doubling.
