Well, I'm not sure what was said on the video, but I can tell you that your coin has the appearance of a normal silver nickel.

A youtubeit vid I suspect. By an arm chair "Expert" (still trying to figger out just what a "pert" is...) First I've EVER heard of a "copper" nickel, meaning just what, do you know? Is it struck on a cent planchet? Or is it a Nickel sized copper planchet, that the mint never did produce, or did aliens make it.  (OK Mark, where are ya...)

Never heard of a copper 1943 nickel. Although if you saw it in a youtube video it must be true!  Guess I'll go with:

My guess is when you looked up the 43 nickel, it directed you to a video about the 1943 copper cent instead.

1943 P (Copper) Nickel World War II is very rare, Struck on copper planchette, I know because I have one, it has to weigh in at 4.7 grams give or take a few, mine is exactly 4.74 grams! But if you have no way to tell exactly if it is one, you may have to have it xrayed andor tested at a certified coin shop! Mine has chips out of it and it is easily recognized as the copper inside, the planchette! It's so rare that word is you may be holding onto a coin that is worth in excess of 75K, not kidding, ya just have to have the right collector! Good Luck
