    A lot of great information has been shared here for you.

    Instead of trying to “teach” us I recommend you listen and do some reading before speculating what you think you have.

    No known mintmarks exist on any hennings that have been documented since he was caught. Also post mint damage on a coin is not even close to evidence of it being a counterfeit as much as the die evidence that has been linked to his dies like the looped R, die chip, and even the vertical die crack from the dome.

    Several people who have obtained these coins have studied them extensively. There is a ton to learn that already exist.

    It would also do you a great deal of help in trying to prove your case by first providing clear photos of the entire coin of obverse and reverse and also by spell checking your posts.

    Good luck on your endeavors.

    I've previously had 2 Henning Nickels that I sold on EBay. I can't remember for sure how much I got, but they aren't too pricey. Both of them were 1944's. Here's the First:

    These photos are far from the ones you posted in your original post which we could work with. These look like the surface of the moon from an out of focus telescope.

    Try taking a normal photo of the entire coin. We will be able to see the die crack if it’s there. Also a die crack is not the defining evidence for a Henning.

  8. ok aside from all of the head scratching, here is some proof of my 1939 being a counterfeit , check it out look at the picture, and closely to his letterings, first off the date,, i see a date which looks to be 1980, its questionable maybe a 50 or 59, next look at the B in liberty is not a B at all,its a 8 and a D, then check out the E in liberty, well that was once a B, i can get closer too, this is just one of many i have like this and this is why im here 1939 counterfit.jpg
     
  9. LOL i can careless of my spelling, everyone has a weak point, thanks for pointing that out

    :confused:

    Your coins are not counterfeit. That’s a good thing though because that means you can legally spend them.

    You should roll them up in wrappers and deposit them into the bank.

    No need to take more photos of them.

  11. and yes i see all the basic information i already found most that on google and other threads,, im stepping it up a notch,, the same story has been set for years, is it a issue that i try and pull together with those who may actually care,?,
     
  12. yea they are different coins, i stated that,
    those to with cracks are just suspicious, numismatics have been using die chips and cracks to identify coins for long time, so heck,, why couldent they be, they also have altered lettering
     
  13. im not here to speak the small talk of things so if you dont like that then move on please,

    I think a good start for you is to learn what is damage and what is a die marker.
    So far what you have shown are damaged coins. You might buy a henning so that in the future you have a true example to reference to.
    Good luck.

    Well I’m interested now that I know of them.
    Something else to put on the list. Some day I’ll get back to nickels.

    There were a couple floating around the local coin club meetings a few months back. They sold for $50ish if I remember correctly. Seemed interesting, but I didn't buy one.
