Kokobeanz New Member United States 6 Posts	Posted 05/07/2021 03:18 am I'm 99% sure I found a 1947 Henning nickel, it weighs 5.11 grams. Any information on what the value of this might be? Report this Post to the Staff

Kokobeanz New Member United States 6 Posts	Posted 05/07/2021 08:10 am Hi John, I did look on here but there's a lot more about the 1944, not so much the 1947. From what I found my coin has a lot of the markings, such as the dot in the upper left field, no mint mark, and it weighs over the 5 grams. The only picture I found of another one looks very similar. http://www.error-ref.com/henning-co...feit-nickel/ Report this Post to the Staff
JohnH4444 Valued Member 206 Posts	Posted 05/07/2021 09:14 am Average weight of regular nickel is around 5 grams. Average weight of henning nickel is 5.40 grams. Way too light to be a henning Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 05/07/2021 09:32 am Did you note on the "Henning" Nickels that they are a weaker strike? Yours is a strong strike. Not a "Henning". Sad part of this is that the counterfeit ones are worth more than than the normal ones. Report this Post to the Staff

JimmyD Bedrock of the Community Canada 21652 Posts	Posted 05/07/2021 12:16 pm The tolerance on a nickel is .19g so at 5.11, yours is well within the acceptable tolerance for a regular nickel. Report this Post to the Staff
