Any chance this could be a Hennings with out the looped R or a transitional 1945? Figure it's worth asking thank you in advance for any input.

The weight of your nickel will be important for the experts to help you.

Can't be a Henning nickel as it clearly has a Denver mintmark, and all known Henning counterfeits have no mintmarks, even though 1946 is one of the known dates. I would take this nickel to a professional jeweler to have it XRFed to confirm composition.

While your coin does have the mushy and grainy look of a Henning and considering that 1946 is a known Henning date I can see why you are curious. However there are no known Henning's with a mint mark and your coin is a 1946D, so no it is not a Henning.

The weight of a Henning was once thought to be important to tell the difference. But it is now known that is NOT the case.


This one being a 46-D cannot be a Henning. There are good links on this forum to studying them, and now error-ref.com also has a great section on them.
