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

    68D Lincoln with a headache?

    This 68D is a little odd looking to me. The eight is definitely something happened to it, it is as found sorry if its dirty, it doesnt appear to have much circulation in 50+ years! The six is off or missing? a piece maybe came off , odd. this was in fairly decent shape, then i saw he looks like he has a headache, his head looks busted or cracked all down the center, of the head, and behind the ear to the R in trust. Neat crack on an otherwise fairly nice old lincon cent, you dont find them like this much anymore People pull the copper ones out, for years now, and i guess the pandemic change shortage pulled back in quite a few into circulation. Well, i should say, its a retirement type community where i live, and I have gotten a silver quarter in my change at the little hardware store since then.

    Lincoln cents are well known for cracked skulls. The can display a lot of cracks. They don't bring a huge premium, but one once in awhile one buys me lunch.

    This one i added to an educational post about error types.
