I recently purchased a bulk lot of Jefferson War Nickels for just under spot. As figured, there were a lot of P nickels (especially 1943). However, I was able to find at least some of each year/mm including four 1943D nickels. I also found these three that stuck out. 1945P with Rainbow Toning 1945P with Lamination Error on Reverse (is that the right term?) Very nice and shiny 1943P coin. Could this be a proof? Or a Dipped/Cleaned coin? Opinions?
Nice multiple lamination error on the 1945-P. No proof coins were struck from 1943 to 1949. It looks polished or buffed.
