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

    Kennedy Half Dollar

    I have 2 questions on this Kennedy Half Dollar. First is this a weak or die adjustment strike and if not. And, Second is can a coin be so circulated that it can be 1/4 to 1/2 the size of a normal Kennedy and have a 10.1g weight. Thank you for all the help.

    It appears that the design was ground away on each face. I conclude this because the proto-rim of the unstruck planchet is absent. The proto-rim would be evident if this was a genuine low-pressure strike. By the way, there is too much glare on your first two photos.
