Mark webster Posted February 6, 2020 Share Posted February 6, 2020 I have other pics if needed, the two bumps on reverse you can actually feel so I am fairly certain they have been there since the coins creation. Any know anything about this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greenstang Posted February 6, 2020 Share Posted February 6, 2020 Welcome to the Chat Box. That coin is in such poor shape that those bumps could have been caused by anything such as corrosion. You can be pretty sure though that they weren't there when the coin was struck so it would be some sort of damage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member: Seasoned Veteran DWLange Posted February 7, 2020 Member: Seasoned Veteran Share Posted February 7, 2020 It's crude enough that it could be one of the Henning counterfeits. 1946 was among the five dates he faked in the mid-1950s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark webster Posted February 7, 2020 Author Share Posted February 7, 2020 Hmm yea I suppose that is more likely because I don’t think it’s corrosion as the other guy suggested, because like I said you can actually feel the bumps and if you look closely they almost look like stars. I guess I’ll have to grab a microscope to be certain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VKurtB Posted February 7, 2020 Share Posted February 7, 2020 Do some research on Henning nickels. That is the most likely answer for the OP's coin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
