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

  • 1955 5c PF MS 7 steps ? What? How many do you count?

    ​I'm counting 7 steps someone else counted 6 steps and yet someone else counted 8, At Monticello their are actually 7 steps, but on the nickel I thought that 6 was the magic number, does this have extra step???

    In my opinion, I see normal looking steps. For proof coins, the full steps designation does not apply. The proof coins typically are struck at least twice to get the best looking coin possible, negating the criteria for full steps. Again full steps designation applies to business strikes only.
