Henning Nickels are dated 1939, 1944, 1946, 1947, and 1953. The 1944 is easily the most popular year because it's the easiest to spot.

I still have my Hennings. I'm currently trying to obtain more off date Hennings (1939, 1946, 1947 & 1953). I also have a copy of the Stuckey book that I bought years ago in a major numismatic literature auction. BigSilver, could you post a photo of the counterfeit of a counterfeit that you have? Since you mentioned it in this thread I assume it is a Henning.

I've got a '44 that I found in change many years ago, before I knew the Henning story, and just tossed it aside as a curiosity (fortunately).

@pyrobob- I don't think I have those pictures anymore. And the coin was returned for a refund. I did post it here at the time, but I couldn't find the topic any longer.Never mind I found it. We butted heads about it at the time. http://goccf.com/t/263149&whichpage=1Edited by BigSilver

Thanks for the link, BigSilver. That one is interesting if the XRF results were correct.  You said it weighed about 5g. I mentioned earlier here that I believe Hennings weigh about 5.5g. I read it was either a mistake or he intentionally ordered the planchets overweight to avoid suspicion. I haven't found what the composition should be. If I were to get one, I was going to ask for the weight from the seller to try and confirm it is a genuine Henning. I would probably stick to examples with the looped R to be more safe, as well. If anyone would like to post pics of their example(s), please do! In Memory of Crazyb0 12-26-1951 to 7-27-2020

I don't have any of the known Henning years I did however find about a year or so ago a 1945 D with the MM above the montecello building. Guarunteed fake, after a little bounce test on the counter to listen for classic War Nickel sound a small peice of the rim broke off revealing what looks to be a washer or some sort of metal disk within. I can't remember what it weighed tho, I'll up have to rescale it and see. *Edit- There is no hole in the r of Pluribus. I don't know if it somehow *doubtful* maaaybe the missing year Henning alluded to. I'm guessing it was done by a less notable and unknown forger. Edited by OmahaJoe

I have 2 1944's, one with a looped R, one without, and a 1943.
I'd like to have them graded and slabbed, but I'm afraid they will be seized.

I never thought of the grading thing. Do TPGs slab Hennings? I'm guessing not as they are counterfeit and the only ones I see for sale are raw. In Memory of Crazyb0 12-26-1951 to 7-27-2020
