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

  • 1914 no mint mark

    I looked through variety vista and every where and found nothing on a DDO for this 1914. I’m pretty sure it’s a DDO can anyone enlighten me please

    In my opinion, the date looks like die deterioration. It's not at the same height. It the speed was that wide, it would have been evident on all numbers in the date. I suggest looking at the 1917 doubled die for a comparison. I like you to eagle eye the 9 and 7 in the date.

    See how they are almost at the same height ?

    The other photos I think I see some pitting on the coin.
    I am not sure if this was in the ground or exposed to weather.
    It might have been for a short period of time.

      I agree with Gary that this is from die deterioration.

      The coin was struck by a late die-state (LDS) die. Maybe even a Very late die-state (VLDS).
