Looks like it's the real deal. The pickup point is the R in pluribus.

There is a member here that knows a lot about them but I forget who,sorry. Going by the pic from that link it looks possible but it does not say what date the photo is from.

This is a Henning. The hole in the R of PLURIBUS, the rough fields and the tiny pimples over the left side of Monticello on the reverse are all diagnostics. Very nice find!

Besides 1944 the other years are 1939, 1946, 1947 and 1953. Not all of the off years used the reverse die with the the hole in the R so pay attention to the other diagnostics.

This is cool. I had not heard of this guy at all. Already went through my old nickel rolls, no more to add. Great Find.
