Picked this up in a lot of junky coins off ebay. Looks like the 1944 Henning with the "looped R" to me. Weight is 5.15 grams which is light for a Henning. What's your opinion?

Well, I don't see a War Nickel's large P/D/S mint mark above Monticello. Fabulous score, the classic Henning nickel! =)

Wasn't hard. The seller made it easy (2x2 said 1944 counterfeit).

Seems like the weight being a bit lower than most Hennings isn't necessarily a problem:

Thats it, nice pickup.

Here is a thread from nearly 15 years ago where we discussed identifying Henning nickels.
