At a coin show a few Sundays ago a dealer had about 10 Hobo Nickels and many of the Henning Nickels. Not being interested I didn't even ask about a price. I'll have to check with him at the next show. More and more people are getting interested in those.

Toss that info in my direction when you find out. I'm trying to expand my henning holdings.

Hello again, I dug my 1944 Henning Nickel out of the safe and so that everyone is clear on the weight differance here we go. The 1944 Henning Nickel weighed 5.3 Grams and the US 1944 35% silver nickel weighed 4.8 grams the Henning Nickel weighs "MORE" I have tried to buy one for years NO one wants to sell them remember the mintage is Est @ 100,000 total that's not many. I do not know if people read these posts but if I do not hear back I will quit posting on this subject. Thanks Again.    I hope to get a couple of reply's.

This is the one my wife found roll hunting. I was as excited about her finding that as I was when she found her 38D Walker. LOL   I have not seen any at a show, but then I wasnt actually hunting the down either.

There are several recent threads on the forum about Henning Nickels. Just do a search for Henning and you will see the latest.

Notice that smokeriderdon's nickel does not have a hole in the leg of the R in PLURIDUS. Neither does mine.

So, I have what appears to be a 1942 Jefferson with no mint mark, made of some kind of metal which is the right colour but very soft. How would I go about identifying whether it is one of these counterfeits, or a US Mint error?

I saw the 1942 S nickel on ebay when it was first submitted. I see no characteristics of a henning nickel on it. I think it is just a damaged War Nickel.

Henning: I've heard of him and read about his story. The best part about it was the vending machine in New Jersey that spit out all the blank planchets when someone tried to buy a coke. I wonder if they thought they were in Las Vegas?
