solotime Pillar of the Community United States 2311 Posts	Posted 03/16/2014 11:51 am I believe this is a fake nickel made by Henning by looking at the rims. I have never saw a nickel with rims all banged up. Look how some parts are incomplete. Also the in UNUM, the you and N on the left have one dot on each of them. It can be PMD but why only on the rim and not the front? On the back, bottom right part of the rim, it's a Little thicker. The hair is a little light and so is the Monticello. It's 4.9 Grams Edited by solotime 03/16/2014 11:52 am Report this Post to the Staff

fioti Pillar of the Community United States 4212 Posts	Posted 03/16/2014 1:59 pm The weight is not surprising, considering the wear. Wasted rims are not indicative of a Henning. A pouros (SP) surface would be more to get excited about. Report this Post to the Staff
pyrbob Rest in Peace United States 1943 Posts	Posted 03/16/2014 3:27 pm Sorry but it isn't a Henning. As fioti mentioned, the surfaces are not pourous, also the rims and letters are too sharp. The dots on the you and M on UNUM are part of the damage. The dots I see on Hennings are on the fields inside the letters not on top of them. Report this Post to the Staff

westernsky Pillar of the Community United States 7618 Posts	Posted 03/16/2014 5:17 pm Definitely not a Henning nickel. Damage is post mint and looks like something you'd find in a 7/11 parking lot. Report this Post to the Staff
