Sounds like you're on top of some of the differences. Posting pics might help us with ID.
The picture Doug posted is a very classic looking nelsoni.
Here are some neck shots and a shot of a classic looking sinaloan for you to compare to DMong's nelsoni.
I'm sure someone will chime in with how all the animals in the US these days are crosses between nelsoni and sinaloae, so I won't go there. BUT there are some that are working with pure nelsoni and pure sinaloae
Here's a pure sinaloae

And then a few neck shots for comparison. Although the nelsoni is amel, you can see how the black ring (white in this specimen) would not encircle the neck.
Hope this helps- post some pics of your animals.
