Looks to be but a better focused shot of the date is what is needed. The 3 should have a barb like device in the lower loop. If your 3 looks like this in hand ....bingo! It's the variety
This is what it should look like, I don't see the spike . Yours may just be a die chip....need better images.
There are a few others that have the spur in a slightly different position closer to the loop of the 3, those are NOT the 3/2 but chips as mentioned above. There is also nice doubling on the "1" and "4" on the real one, so use a magnifier to check those areas also. Although your photos of this area are blurry , it does appear that your spur is not on the end but slightly closer to a loop, so I would be very doubtful until a sharper photo. Keep it even if not.

Thank y'all so much..I appreciate your advice n opinions..I also have a few of these uncirculated. Is it worth it to get graded and try to auction them off or sale..
From those photos, it looks like a die chip, but I was pleasantly surprised when I opened this thread. Typically threads like this are a complete waste of time and the coin has no shot. Your coin has potential but we will need much better photos to evaluate what you really have. As others have pointed out, the real 43/2-P will have the bottom edge of the 2 visible within the lower loop of the 3, and the diagonal of the 2 will point towards the inner curve of the 3, not at the point. War Nickels are very common and need to be premium gem grade to even consider grading. My personal standard is if it doesn’t have a chance at MS67, I don’t submit. None of your Nickels shown are close to that level. Please try to get a better photo of the 3, we are all hoping to give you good news.
With everyone replys. I looked into it more n I don't believe it is a 43/2 date..but still a great piece. Thanks..but I would like to hear post or neg about these nickels..n was curious what makes a nickel turn a gold/yellowish color? So sorry bout the order they came in. New phone and new user..
