Swaffelaer New Member United States 4 Posts	Posted 08/14/2021 03:06 am I've seen a few of these without the "R." That didn't send a Red Flag for me. What does is if that one weigh less than 5 grams. A Henning should weigh around 5.4 grams (minus a little because they tend to get worn quite easily). This one is worn, but is half of a gram worn off? Also, that "44" is a lot sharper than Hennings often are...Hennings tend to have a flatter "44." Personally, and I base it only on my hunch, it is one of two things: 1.) Either someone may have scraped off the "P" of a War Nickel (not the seller per se...but someone), since a Henning will bring in more than a War Nickel. OR: 2.) Overly greased dies have been known to keep the P from striking on War Nickels. Here are Rev and Obv photos of one of those War Nickels without the P.

I'm going with a genuine Henning . JMHO . Report this Post to the Staff

I don't have a scale for coins and if I find it and get a chance I may be able convert the weight by grains to grams. Sorry my no hole R is not readily available at this time. ( I have it but it is buried someplace in the safe.) Report this Post to the Staff
