to the CCF.

Do you have a question to ask about these?

The color is different because the 1943-P nickel is of war time silver alloy while the 1964 coin is normal copper/nickel alloy. All circulated War Nickels have that grayish hue.

Yes exactly what @ijn said: different alloys will typically tone in different ways, even if exposed to the same conditions.

The images are so small, I cannot even see the dates to know which is which. Please crop your images to the edges of the coin. Not while you posted the 2 coin in one image is great for a reference, it would also be nice if you took individual images of each so they can be larger and easier to see.
Also, I'll second on what Nickelsearcher has stated (even though Spence thinks it was ijn )
