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.

    2018 Die Clash?

    Is this what is known as a die clash? I see the shield all around Lincoln's bust. WIN_20240409_19_01_11_Pro.jpg

        I did not see anything significant. I did a double take on the designer initials and the lower one-third of the shield, but I cannot say for certain I seen anything worthy.

        Congrats on the obverse. Under perfect lighting, a photo could look amazing.

              kinda funny. the shield lines are designed in such a way as to make the obv clash look nearly identical to the memorial clashes of old.

              glad to see die clashes still going strong!

                There is something definitely there but I don't see any corresponding shield details I would expect, this might be due to mirroring from a die clash. But this looks like what one might get from some other non related coin being above it in some pressure stack of a few tons. I have seen some similar details from coins from a hydrolic press and a post-it note pad secondary die. I am not say this is not a mint error, having worked in industrial locations with various dies, care must be taken not to set these heavy die setups on anything other than their flat or nesting surfaces to keep from maring them.
