I have take this coin to 5 different coin dealers. 1 said "maybe" 1945 and 1 said "I think 1948 but dont know for sure" and the other 3 were unable to make a decision. All 5 said to send it to be looked at with the right equipment because it could be, however very slip a 1943. This is the only angle to where it looks like any kind of number whether it be 5 8 or 3. Here are 3 pics. 2 of the coin, one in black and white and a pic of the 1943 steel. Compare them all side by side.
