Found this 1945 P War Nickel in my roll of Nickels this week. On occasion I find a Silver Nickel and I have found three others so far. Nickel is worn from circulation, but not a bad looking coin. Still no steps available so it won't qualify as a AU but it's a keeper as far as I am concerned. The Mint made 109 Million plus of this Philadelphia coin and there are plenty out in the wild. Look at the pics and regards all!

Nice find! As far as grading goes, I'll say Fine.

Always fun finding a War Nickel in the wild.

No sign of the scarce DDR error that I could see.

I would have said 30 on this one. Hair structures are still mostly present, window frames visible on Monticello. But that lettering has a really flat quality to it, so 25 seems more reasonable,
