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

    1955 cent multiple errors?

    I recently acquired this cent with a lot of things going on. I’m wondering how I should catalog it. I mean yeah the doubling is obvious. But it seems to have some die cracks and maybe even a clash. I just don’t want to write a list if it may be a single variety. I looked through some varieties but am not finding all of these attributed to one coin. The marks on the head and bust are raised and I think there is a crack in the lamination on the bust as well. The overall look of the coin looks a bit soft in some places and also has crisp features. I don’t know how unique it is or if I should send it to have the attributes examined as a new variety. Just wanting to show it off and see what conversation it might bring. I at present don’t have any desire to sell it, it is just an oddity.

      Ra,
      They call this a poor man's double die. It's not a double die, just die fatigue from a very late die state coin as Jason pointed out. Your marker photo's are getting a lot better, no problem seeing the die cracks and that die break on the T of Cent. Eric
