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

    1990 P LMC- Post Mint Damage?

    Pretty sure someone messed with this coin outside of the U.S. Mint, but I found it interesting in that there are letters T & R on the rim on the Reverse besides the mess on the Obverse and Reverse.

    The multiple impressions all seem consistent with the coin be pressed between a sandwich of other Lincolns - thus PMD (or PSD, post strike damage).

        The one thing that people overlook consistently with multiple images on one face of the coin is that dies do not have a raised rim. The edge of the die is the field, similar to the flat earth concept, there is no raised portion to stop you from falling off. Anything that has a rim incorporated into the duplicated image should be approached with extreme caution.

          If a person wanted to be a thief they could get rich on Ebay selling this junk. anyone could make a million of these in a very short time. I see them selling on Ebay almost every week and we have got it slowed down a little but these are still sneaked in by two or three certain corrupt sellers.
