[QUOTE="Lehigh96, post: 3574159, member: 15309"]The war nickels all look like standard circulated war nickels to me. They are notorious for turning black when circulated. The ones that you have shown closeup have been cleaned but still have the same metal composition. The 54-S you showed is a very nice coin with good luster and probably deserves a gem grade. In order to determine if you have a 54-D/D, we would still need a better photo of the mintmark. Shown below is the example from NGC Variety Plus.
