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

    Hello everyone! I am Autumn from Detroit Michigan and I am new to coin collecting and fascinated with error coins and pennies.

    Welcome aboard.
    There are some good members here to answer your coin related questions.

    Over the years I have noticed there are a lot of coins struck in Europe that are readily available, even back as far as the 17th century and before. Doubled dies and over dates are popular.

    US Mint quality assurance and quality control has been pretty strict since 2003. The major US Mint Errors have not escaped in mass since 2003. It's slim pickings, that's for sure.

    The re-punched mint marks (D/D and S/S) were eliminated when the US Minr added the mint mark to the master hub. That means there hasn't been an RPM since 1989.

    Searching for errors and varieties is like a small lottery. One never knows what the next coin in that roll will be.

    Happy hunting.
