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

    Can somebody tell me what happened to this poor baby's eye?

    It looks like it could either be a die gouge of some sort of doubled die. I don't see what would have been doubled though. I don't think it is a die clash, but that would be the other option.

      It is more than likely a die gouge.

        Nice find for a proof set coin. All my proofs are either scratched, spotted or dinged. I've never come across a die gouge!
