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

    1942 S Jefferson RPM 007?

    I continue to experiment with the overlay tool & feel cautiously optimistic this coin matches the 1942 S Variety Vista RPM 007. Would you agree?
    I'm using the snipping tool to size the photos appropriatly & while I can get close my attempts still feel amaturish.

    So far so good on being "the James Bond version 007" from what I can see.


    Great job on the photos but in the future photos of the full obverse and reverse would be appreciated due to it helps with the pick-up-points (PUP) especially when they are crisp like yours to help discern authenticity. I also noticed that varietyvista.com is asking for better photos to help continued documentation so maybe think about contacting them thru "contact us" on the website I believe.
    This year and mintmark has different ones at different stages of die deterioration (i.e., cracks on Monticello).

      Thanks. I will send the note asking if they are interested.
      I worked on better fixturing to get a picture of the entire coin with my microscope. Experiments with my phone yeilded results that were not very good. These are the results. Hope to find a way to reduce the glare.

        Guys, Variety Vista is not related to CONECA. Dr Wiles used to house the files for CONECA and do attributing for CONECA, he is on his own now. If James Wiles is asking for more photos you need to send them to him.

          Thank you. I was meaning to ask the clarification question about the difference between Variety Vista and the Coneca Master list. I did not connect the dots that the VV database was unrelated to CONECA till now. Looking forward to seeing the Jefferson nickel CML when it becomes available.
