    I have a 1943-P Jefferson Nickel that has been graded by A.N.A.C.S. as 'VG8 Details Reverse Laminations'. I have asked A.N.A.C.S. to confirm the Reverse Laminations and am waiting for their reply at the moment.

    What's the value of this coin?

    How rare is this coin?

    Thanks in advance for your replies and help. :)

    Laminations are fairly common errors that occur when the planchet alloy is impure. Value tends not to be much of an additional premium, but can depend on the size and severity of the lamination.

    Don't take this the wrong way, but to many people, it will be worth silver melt value. Jefferson Nickels do not have numismatic value in the circulated grades and most collectors will not pay a premium for a lamination error, even if severe.

    As for value based on previous auction records. There was an ANACS 1942-P that sold for $10.00 in 2008.

    I've seen TPGs focus on rev. lams, just to miss an RPM.
    I've a '45P as such.
    The '43 has both 2X-dies, as well as RPMs.
    Check for cracks around the columns for a double marker.

    Thanks for the tips! I'll certainly take a closer look at the coin.
