I also have a Henning 1944 counterfeit and there is another marker to look for in this coin. In all the counterfeits I have seen there is a small hole in leg of the letter (R) in the word Pluribus. And all that I have seen are of the grade G-8 although it is possible you could get one in a higher grade.However, I would think if Henning did make other years of counterfeit nickels he would keep the same die and if that where the case then that same small hole would be on those dates also. It is opinion that Henning did not counterfeit for the money alone, I think he also thought his engraving talents were as good as any at the mint.
