nickelsearcher Moderator United States 15395 Posts	Posted 03/15/2023 05:00 am to the CCF We need a photo of the obverse. So far I see a corroded ground find nickel of indeterminate date. Take a look at my other hobby ... http://www.jk-dk.art Report this Post to the Staff
Dearborn Moderator United States 95018 Posts	Posted 03/15/2023 06:47 am I see a loop on the R so quite possibly it is, but will need better images to tell for sure. Need date, weight, and closeup of the R Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember.

John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 03/15/2023 08:21 am I think it is a 1946 going by his other post. The R looks like damage to me not a Henning mark. John1 Report this Post to the Staff
Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 03/15/2023 09:22 am Just looks like a once-buried nickel to me. to the CCF! Report this Post to the Staff
Flkas New Member United States 7 Posts	Posted 03/22/2023 4:03 pm Definitely the proper shape of the R. No evidence of the die crack. If you zoom in on the 'O' in 'OF AMERICA' you can make out the flat spot at the base. The 5.18 g weight is well within the weights of the 'looped R' Hennings. Another indicator is the mushiness of MONTICELLO and FIVE CENTS with the 'S' in CENTS weak to almost missing. If it's 1946, you have a difficult to find year. Worth getting excited about.

Dearborn Moderator United States 95018 Posts	Posted 03/23/2023 12:55 pm hey Deb! thanks for the support here. I too, believe it is a Henning. I wish the OP would post up some better images of the date and the 'R' Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember.
