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

    Error penny?

    This penny looks like the top layer is not there but the "in God" is minted on the next layer. Please advise.

      Difficult to tell what is going on with this coin. It is well circulated so this could be done outside of mint, known as post mint damage. Coins are abused in many different ways, some used as tools some as spacers, some as crazy experiments. The issue appears minor, and there appears to be some sort of damage associated with it. My gut feeling is to call it post mint damage.

      In my opinion it does not look like a strike through or lamination issue, but we will see what others say.
