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

    double brokage

    How can happen a double brokage (brokage on both sides)?
    Is it genuine or fake?
    Thanks

    I would assume it is a fake (produced outside of any mint). It's a simple enough matter to take an unstruck planchet and squeeze it between two genuine coins. Here in the United States we call them "sandwich jobs", "squeeze jobs", "vise jobs", and "hammer jobs".
