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

    Retained Struck Through - Canadian 64 Cent

    Just wanted to show off my new Retained Struck Through on a 1964 Canadian cent that I pulled out of a bank bag that had been sealed from the mint since 64.

    There's a small piece of copper embedded above the Queen's eyebrow.

    Very nice pick; it is hard to find "struck through a foreign object" still in tact.

        Do you go hunting specifically for strike-throughs, or just lucky? Either way, great coins, thanks for sharing them.

          I buy hoards.... peoples buckets and jars of pennies to search through. Usually all the key dates are pulled out but things like this are overlooked.
