Many of you on the forum either collect these pieces or have an interest in them. A new book about them is available. Hopefully this isn't old news. https://www.coinbooks.org/v27/club_nbs_esylum_v27n22.html#article5 Also accessed here. https://www.coinbooks.org/v27/club_nbs_esylum_v27n22.html#article1 I highly recommend this sight. Lots of info each week.
I purchased a copy of the book directly from Mr. Cronin. It is very detailed and informative. Now if I could just find one of those nickels.
I hope to buy the book soon. I'm glad to see someone that can be trusted, put it all in print. I don't trust much of what some have posted on the internet. I have saved a large amount of nickels in this date range. It's going to be a fun search.
@tibor Yes it's recent news.. Joseph did a thread about his new book https://www.cointalk.com/threads/my-book-the-henning-nickels-collectors-guide.411248/
@paddyman98 When you get a chance, in my opening post I listed a second website. Click on it and the last article might be of interest to you.
I found the most common Henning in a bag of nickels I bought when my LCS closed. It is the 1944 no MM variety. I stopped looking after this. Just not lucky enough to find another.
They used to be cheap. I remember I bought one at a Hacketstown, New Jersey Coin Club show for $1 in the mid 1970s. That was probably too much.
The Hackettstown Coin Club is still holding these shows. There is one this Sunday (6/9) in Flemington, NJ.
I keep my eyes open whenever I'm searching nickels, but not found one yet. But I definitely look carefully for these!
