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

    My name is Daniel Evanich, I'm from San Jose, California and I collect US mint errors dating back to the 1960's. Today I enjoy revisiting several of the hobbies I loved as a younger person decades ago. I just recently joined CONECA (today) and look forward to becoming an active member. My other hobby interests lie in Mineralogy and Geology. As an Amateur Field Mineralogist, I recently discovered a new rare mineral species that was named in my honor; "evanichite".

    Is evanichite similar to leaverite. As in leave it right where you found it.

      LOL! Not leaverite at all. A rare chromium oxide/sulfide mineral species discovered from material that came from a now defunct mine in Tiger, Arizona.

        I have some rock material from the iron ore mines in Minnesota that is also rare and is thought to be played out. The mineral is called Binghamite. It makes very pretty gems.
