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

  • Greetings, I'm N-7458

    Hello to all, my name is Troy. I'm a disabled man with not much to do. I'm a newbie as far as varieties, paid member glad to be able to get some advice. I picked up my coin collecting hobby from first buying a few silver eagles from late night tv.(insomnia). After watching and listening to YouTube folks like blue ridge and coinhelp4u I decided to look for mint sets and occasionally a proof set. I mostly look for older sets with silver Kennedy. I usually don't have alot to spend so took a couple years to get most of the set completed.im looking forward to showing what the pacific North west has been hiding.im posting under the name Lucky penny

    Welcome aboard. There are a handful of Kennedy collectors in this forum, me being one of them. We look forward to assisting you with your coin questions.

    At http://varietyvista.com you can find quite a few doubled dies and some re-punched mint marks on those Kennedy half dollars. Be mindful that doubled dies is exactly what it means. It is a working die that had multiple impressions of the coin image on it. Those imgages are sunk in or, Incused into the steel die, so it's location of the doubling isn't going to move locations.

    Happy hunting.
