Yes. I've been a member for 2 years now. You will learn a lot about mint errors in their monthly newsletter.
The Merc is a Planchet flaw. Cracked planchet or fissure. I don't consider that severe though. The Cent is cool.
The President of CONECA is a member here...Jim Motley , also a good friend.....Error Scope their magazine always has interesting articles. And if youre an error guy ...well CONECA is your go to.
