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

    1928 capped, clashed (and broadstruck?) penny

    Hi - Nonpaid member here. I'm having trouble classifying what's going on with this 1928 penny. I can't tell if it's truly an error or if someone messed with it. It seems an obvious die clash on the obverse, and maybe capped? There's some wording or numbers to the right of Lincoln's face that I can't make out. The reverse looks like it's broadstruck and capped? Posting here and elsewhere looking for feedback. Thanks.

    In my opinion, it appears to be post mint damage. It looks like coins were stacked together and put into a vise or other device and a lot of pressure was applied. But, its not even close in pressure compared to what the US Mint uses.
