CONECA will be examining error and variety coins for free around the USA in the next few months. Here is a press release.
-Garrett
CONECA, the international error coin and variety club, will be offering free examination of error and
variety coins to collectors at educational tables at coin shows across the United States throughout
this year.
The club, whose name stands for "Combined Organizations of Numismatic Error Collectors of
America," is the largest coin specialty club in the United States and has actively been educating
collectors about mint error and variety coins for the last five decades.
At their coin show tables, different members of the CONECA Board of Directors and other error /
variety enthusiasts (each with different areas of specialty as available) will offer free examination to
collectors who bring coins from their collection to the show with questions.
CONECA is devoted to education about errors and varieties and will not be buying or selling coins at
their tables. The club requests that collectors have an idea of what they are asking about on the coins
they bring to the shows, to allow for as many collectors as possible to have a chance to have their
coins examined. The show schedule is as follows:
CONECA decided to begin having a table at the Central States Numismatic Society show in
Schaumburg, April 23rd-26th 2025, held at the Schaumburg Renaissance Hotel and Convention
Center, 1551 North Thoreau Drive, Schaumburg, IL 60173. More info at https://www.csns.org/.
There will be a CONECA table at the Spring Pennsylvania Association of Numismatists (PAN) show
