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

    You need to find some more coins to compare your coin too. I'm thinking your coin may be just kind of normal for this date. from somewhere around 1982 to 1996 or so they about all seem to be rotated a tiny bit. after you examine a lot of them you may see what I'm trying to say. rotated coins are not worth much unless they are rotated quite a lot , like say 80 to 180 degrees. One thing that may be confusing you is that you have your coin rotated in the holder , bring it back to where the date and liberty is sitting level then look at the reverse side.

        The only thing I had to go by was the photo of the reverse side of your coin showing in your mirror. I see what you are talking about now and I'm sorry for telling you wrong.

          Darn it now you have got me all confused with that mirror thing. I can barely see your coin in the mirror and it looks like what I said first was right. the reverse side of your coin is right side up in the mirror isn't it ? if so then your coin is not rotated much at all if any.

            This is a well-known rotated die error. Most say that it's rotated 165 degrees. A few degrees here or there don't matter, though. It's a major example. Congratulations on a great find.

              Sorry coin crazy , I told you wrong . That fuzzy looking photo of the coin in the mirror threw me off track. Congrats on a great find. I told you a few days ago you would find a good one.
