I was looking at some of the photos of the Jefferson and I am sure this matches he 1943/2 regular issue nickel . Opinions appreciated.
Do you still have it? I often wonder what I've spent or lost over the years. Oh well, hindsight is 20/20 right?
Oh yes, I still have it. It's only a F/VF though, and it lives in the "extra holes" of my "up through 2005" Jefferson Nickel Dansco.
Hey I'm new to forum ,an coins. I had a question ,I just found 1943 s war nickel an it looks really weird ,it has alot of gold Color to it. It weighs 4.9
Welcome to coin Talk this is a great place to find the answers you need. The nickel you have is a 1943-S war nickel . These nickels were made from a different metal during the war years . These are part silver , manganese , and nickel . This is why they are the gold looking color. The best place to post your question is under the Coin Talk forum and if possible supply a picture of the coin in question. There are members that will give you more information about your nickel. thank you .Just click under forums and select the coin talk and no need to post a poll about your coin just ignore that part ask the question and supply photo if possible and your on your way .
OK I'm going to say Yes it is a 3 over 2. I have only seen pictures of this error, Some dealer years ago showed me an example I looked and looked and said I can't see it so I never bought that nickel. Hopefully I was right.
I posted few pictures not sure how good they were. I'll post two more an I'm Glad I found this group ,y'all are awesome .
Your right I just looked mine don't have that ,but I was curious because it looks so gold an its not wear.
I got coin fever now, I've got 1930 pennys an I've even got a 1960 nickel from change that looks brand new ,I even just found a 1940 dime yesterday ! In change.
The 43/42 is a Philly minted coin. Your coin is a San Francisco. It is not the over date. Still a cool coin. Keep up the hunt. Welcome to CoinTalk.
Also check this one out I just found. Is this an error ? I'm hooked now an buying a metal detector ha
Looks like it could be a rim burr. That would be considered a mint error. Not the most valuable of errors but still an error. Does the third side of the coin Look damaged?
