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

  • (2)2006P Sacagawea $ Rev Die Breaks/Chip

    Hello everyone... I have a nice find here to share. Two 2006P Sacagawea $ each with the identical die breaks/chip on the reverse. I tried taking pics of the reverse of the two, side by side, but one or the other was either blurred or too dark. Areas where the die breaks are located is over the "B", between the "B", "U", and the "S" running under the "U" upward over the "S" to the wing and, within the "U" in UNUM and running downward toward the eagle's head. A sizeable chip is underneath the "B" in PLURIBUS. How common is this find for the 2006P Sacagawea $? Thanks! Fran

    These do not appear to be die chips. They appear to represent die damage. As to how common this is, I can't tell you. Nobody bothers to keep track of minor blemishes like this.

      Sorry for the delayed reply, Mike. To me the areas look like coins that I've seen which are classified as filled die cracks or die gouges and the bump below the "B" looks like a die chip or at least something under the top layer of the coins. They do not have any indentions that I can tell but are raised areas. Thanks! Fran
