Loco Valued Member United States 127 Posts	Posted 06/12/2020 09:15 am The nickel is a War Nickel. These are 35% silver. They commonly have lamination issues. The first picture looks like a classic lamination to me. Report this Post to the Staff
SamCoin Pillar of the Community United States 3237 Posts	Posted 06/12/2020 09:50 am both nickels are 35% silver "war nickels," which is the reason for the color. The 1944 has a minor lamination error down the vest, which was very common those years due to them not having all the kinks worked out of producing the alloy for the silver-nickel planchets.
