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

    1986p nickel - spots on face/brown areas on back is it pmd or errors

    There are black spots on and around the face. On the back there are several areas of brown. I would like to know if the coin has rust or copper and what happened to it? Thanks in advance for all replies

    In my opinion, more than likely post mint damage. Any damage like that is superficial, surface like would have worn off years ago in circulation. To add, the reverse was starting to look like a dryer coin. Some material near the rim was starting to separate. More pmd on the reverse in form of a scratch.
