I see no specific markers for a Henning nickel here.

. There is a CCF member who knows his Hennings, but I just can't remember their name.

The strike is showing die wear. I don't recall the "Henning" nickels showing the heavy die flow lines on them.

Also the strikes are weaker on the "Henning" nickels.

All I ever see posted are the easy to spot 1944's with the looped R. Someone show me an up close photo and weight of a 1947 without the looped R.

You could find someone's in the wild. I will not look for, are fake coins and if you want to sell you could have someone at your door, and you will be full responsible for your own action. I know to detect those coins but I will not be involved here in this community. Good Luck.


In Canada this is true Silviosi, but here in the US it is legal to own/sell a counterfeit coin. Trying to spend a counterfeit like it is real is illegal though.

So there are even people down here who collect counterfeits.

Sorry I've never heard of a henning nickel and I've been cherry picking and collecting error coins for more than 3 decades. I do however I know a little about the silver Kennedy half dollar that you said was your mom's-make sure none are silver 1776-1976. That coin has value(don't know if you knew)

Is it just me or is the lettering close to the rim most of the time on the henning nickles?
