ratman4762 Pillar of the Community United States 2522 Posts	Posted 07/07/2025 6:02 pm Picked this up in a lot of junky coins off ebay. Looks like the 1944 Henning with the "looped R" to me. Weight is 5.15 grams which is light for a Henning. What's your opinion? Report this Post to the Staff

Spence Moderator United States 34447 Posts	Posted 07/08/2025 07:26 am Seems like the weight being a bit lower than most Hennings isn't necessarily a problem: https://coinweek.com/a-collectible-...ing-nickels/ "If you climb a good tree, you get a push." -----Ghanaian proverb "The danger we all now face is distinguishing between what is authentic and what is performed." -----King Adz Report this Post to the Staff
