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

  • Lincoln cent off-center strike ??

    I recently pickup a few off-center struck, Lincoln cents. my question when a coin as the one shown is double struck off-center, with just a small amount of the coin being struck, make it more or less collectible/ valueable

    With off-center strikes and double strikes, 50% off-center is ideal. Above and below that mark, value tails off. But there are many other variables involved in determining value, such as whether one or both strikes are off-center, whether the two strikes overlap, whether a date is present, whether the off-center strike is uniface or die-struck on both faces, etc.
