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

    1943S 'steelie'

    I'm not sure exactly what to call this a strike thru cloth, grease? It rather interesting to say the least and not a bad looking 'S' steelie either considering 85%+ are damaged in some form or another due to metal content from WW2 as we all know correct? The reverse looks normal.

    In my opinion, it looks like whatever it is, is on top of the coin. It may be a thin layer of material, like glue, wax or other almost clear liquid. This to me does not look like a Struck through grease. It does not appear blotchy and it looks like its not indented into the coin.
