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

    1943 P DDO-023?

    Do you think this coin matches the Jefferson nickel VV 1943 P DDO-023? I like how the letters "GOD" and the star/19 shown in my photos match the examples in the Variety Vista listing. I could not find any other pick up points. Thanks for your thoughts & reasons why or why not. The coin looks better in person than my full size photos but I'll take the blame for that.

    I love the separation on the base of the G! I can't say I've looked through all the DDO's but it certainly looks promising IMO! Any more pics of the rest of the date for example to continue to compare different elements to the VV photos definitely would not hurt!

    Thanks, awesome find! Have a great week!

      Thanks Ryan. Per your suggestion I'm including a picture of the full date. I'm also adding the "In" frim IGWT. It might be wishful thinking but I can almost see the seperation shown in the Variety Vista photo? I could not find an equivilant listing in the Doubledie site. I can't see any of the other VV PUP's on this coin but the the nontch in the star and the "GOD" lead me to DDO-023. Is this enough to tip the scale?

        Think about MDD (Machine Damage Doubling), or die deterioration, looks like that to me on GOD.

          Evening Ron,
          Your making me practice with Paint.net...
          I don't believe the coin is DDO-023.
          Use the same characteristics I gave you with mintmarks esp with War Nickels.
          If the REV die has changed, then I would be wrong, yes but all we really have to go on - on a circulated coin, is mintmark position with relation to the Motto - use this to conferm any War Nickel Dies has worked greatly for me. Your mintmark position, with a blurry reverse photo; still looks to far north in comparison to Coneca's photo's.
          Thanks,
          Eric

            Thanks! I understand and agree. With my recent successes using paint.net I duplicated your post I will use my new skills on future posts.
