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

    1975 Roosevelt dime multiple strike?

    Found this time last night at first glance I thought it might have been ran over in a parking lot or smashed by for an object, upon further inspection I noticed it was limited to one side and I also found the letters -One- on the rim. What would this be considered?

      I would have agreed if the word -ONE- wasn't present on the Rim sir.

        The coin doesn't look like a genuine mint error. The rim area is obviously damaged. Could be a vise job that created the one on the rim area. The reverse looks mushy as if there was a soft surface against it when something was squeezed into the obverse of your coin.

          I definitely agree that's what it appears as. But the way that the fields are laid even is what I even posted for.
          If they were putting it in a vise wouldn't the letters be backwards ? Unless they are some kind of pro at mimicking backwards letters. I mean it's clear that they owe in the end are prominent and you can see the E stretch onto the face of the coin now somebody's doing that with advice that's pretty badass.

            The letter's -ON- with a stretched E on the face - are in collar. Or so I see it. When I submit a coin for viewing, at that point I have used my best judgement and eliminated the common variable's. I do Not disagree, however when I end up here I'm extremely eager for a exact explanation of cause but even I know such demand is not easily found without thorough examination. All I need is an explanation of how the -one- is struck in collar with a stretched -E- on the face outside the mint. And the reason that I asked that question is a lot of people spend a lot of money COIN's and errors. If people go to these lengths and extremes to fake a coin , there is going to be experts that know exactly how the process takes place. Right? We're talking about couple hundred thousand dollars in some coins alone . Large #'s brings in extreme experts that have knowledge of the process. Or so they should .
