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

    Good afternoon

    Greetings everyone:
    I knew there were error coins but did not realize the vast amount and verities of them. I have been going through my late Fathers coin collection and have found many error coins. I would like to share a few photos of some that I have not seen in any of the error books that I have read and looked through and get some input on them from the Coneca forum to see if they would be worth sending in to be graded and attributed as error coins.
    Regards, and Happy Holidays

    Hello Richard and welcome to the Forum. In my opinion, the cost of sending any of them for grading and/or attribution would not be cost effective. Thanks for sharing.

      I agree with James. In my opinion, these are pretty minor. The 2023 bullion piece might have some extra metal on the rim but these things happen on over time. In my opinion, it's very minor. The coin with the D mintmark potentially a 1999D ? It is probably machine doubling (worthless doubling) since there has not been an re-punched mintmark on Kennedy Halves since 1989.

      For future reference, the CONECA forum rules state that you should write about one coin per post. This cuts down on confusion, and it allows for more accurate searching on the forum.

      No bell ringers there, but one never knows when one will show up.
      Happy hunting.
