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

    1964-D Jefferson Nickel - Does this look like a RPM to you?

    I've compared my coin to the resources I could find online showing the RPM errors for the 1964 Jefferson Nickel, but my untrained eye is unsure of if I see the RPM or if I am just hopeful. When I look, I do see where it could be a RPM, but I do understand that I could simply just be excited and seeing what I want to see. I'd love the input of those of you who have been looking at these errors and coins for much longer than I have since I am just beginning. Thank you. My photos also may not be the best for judging this error. I only have my cell phone, no magnifying scope to connect to my computer or anything like that right now.

    An RPM is classified as a variety, just so you know.
    The pictures are decent, I just cannot get close enough (magnification-wise) to tell if it is an RPM.

    You have the coin in hand, so take a look at these sites to see if you can match it up. If possible pay close attention to where the mint mark is on the coin. Just about every die that was struck is a little bit different, in respect to the mint mark.

    I cannot get to https://doubleddie.com
    or I would've drilled down to the nickel section.

        One thing to add, if you are concerned about taking photos with your cell phone and seeing great results have a lok at the SECOND post in my signature. About half way down the post is a set up using a 8x8x8 inch box to take nice clear photos.

          Thank you MintErrors ! Your comments are very helpful and appreciated. I looked at the first two site you mentioned, but will look at the third, for sure. I just do not trust my eye with being so new to this world of coins. I'll try your phone photo trick as well to see if I can get a good, clear photo to help with view of the mint mark. Thank you again! I hope you have a fantastic day!
