Just a heads up when it comes to determining these wrong planchette error coins! Go to your local scrap yard! The ray 🔫. 🤣 mentioned in this video is something that every single scrap yard has to have on hand by federal law! The one I use locally only charges me 3$ to run the composition (ray 🔫)! And they give me a print out also! Telling me and my buyers the exact composite of the coin. Thank You Blueridgesilverhound! This video put a giant smile on my face after a super crappy week! 💯🇺🇸✌️ PS the ray 🔫 is a (metal composition analyzer)!
Amen ,thank you .
you should do a side by side comparison from the regular nickel and rare ones so we know what to look for! most beginners, all nickels looks the same
I have a few coins that look exactly like this nickel.. I actually started collecting them because they looked real cool to me..i had no idea they could be worth something :)
here in Kentucky I can just go to the local pawn shop and have them stick what looks like a ink pin. it can test anything from gold, diamonds, most precious metals, and your silver.
I want to redo my last post regarding my 1943 P nickle. I searched info on the coin and the end result is great. It's the one. Not the war time silver.
Sheldon Amaral
Can you tell me please how you got it tested? Thanks
Thanks for this info. I've got a bunch of these old wartime nickles that I started setting aside since back in the early 1960s. I knew that there was silver in those special mint marked coins, so into my special container they went. Thanks to my grandmother, I gained an interest in coin collecting when the good stuff was still circulating. Now I've got one hell of a collection thanks to her. She always told me that the silver coins were going to disappear from circulation much in the same way that she experienced the gold being recalled. I've got a lot of good and valuable coins in my possession thanks to her and her forward thinking. Thanks Grannie, you helped me out a lot.
I have such a coin, from this video,But mine weighs 4.75 and is really nice to see,, not ugly looking like other wartime nickels.Thanks for the info.
I have 1 “43”. Unfortunately, it’s bluish grey. I’ll keep my eye out for them, though.
Thank you so very much for inviting us to our future and the directions in which our lives I headed and what to look out for. i appreciate you for this and more. Bless you for sharing the information.
A modern metal detector in the $200 range can tell the difference by the conductivity of the two metals used. I use my detector searching for transitional coppers and will now employ it to search for transitional wartime nickels too. Nice video, thanks!
Wildcat Creek Survival , that's a brilliant idea! Thanks!
Wildcat Creek Survival
What do you look for to test...?
Thanks.
Hey Troy, I'll do a video demonstrating how this is done. You turn your metal detector discriminator slowly up while passing a normal nickel over the coil. Usually around the middle of the discrimination range the metal detector will cease to read the normal nickel. At this point the detector will still read a silver nickel because they are more conductive than regular nickels. So if you have your detector set up in this fashion then a wartime nickel that does not set off the machine should be made of nickel alloy rather than silver alloy.
Hi, Wildcat Creek Survival. Can you share the brand & model of the modern metal detector you are using? Thanks.
Hi, Wildcat Creek Survival. Can you share the brand & model of the modern metal detector you are using? Thanks.
I noticed a variety in the war nickels. The P mint mark are not the same.Some are fatter and others are thinner.
Hi , yes I have this one to . Thank you
I, probably like many, have 2 of these nickles. Exciting! Tyvm for sharing your knowledge
I have lots of these sending them off to be graded ty BRSH.
I got a nickel back in change yesterday from the store it looks just like that one.
Its not!
You had it checked yet? Makes your heart rate go up down it cardiovascular workout 👍👍✌️👍😂💰💰💃
@@dangray4322 I actually do have one same exact color looks identical to one shown. The coloration is the same which I think is weird like am I 🤑!😂😂😂😂😂
If you have a metal detector, most devices use screen indicators and each metal is assigned as specific target ID, which (when found) is displayed upon the screen to let you know what the metal composition is.
In my experience, war nickels ring up at about the same target ID number as regular nickels.
Thank you man. You actually are learned.
So a common 1943 p nickel should have aged with a dark blue / grey tint to it due to the silver. What if it looks more Olive and has copper patina coming through?
I've been confused myself
Cool video
yeah ...this guy was hard to follow
I have a 1943P Silver. and a 43S My P looks identical to this one. Dark grey it is. These 43's have been in my families possession since the 70's.
Thanks I have three. I've got to get them graded
I would have never thought that the 1990 quarters would be worth any money. I will definitely be on the look out for them now though thanks to you both, and your great information letting us know that they are and what to look for. Thanks for the great information you two are awesome, and give the best videos on information about coins, and what to look for . thank you both so much J&B always greatly appreciated.
My reply to you is that the Average quarter is worth .25, if uncirculated and in mint condition it’s worth a whopping $11.00
Google : 1990 quarter, it will show you what I just typed. It’s a scam all about the money, coins are worth thousands and thousands but who is going to pay?
My 1943 P looks just like that one . Should I have it graded?
Just picked up 3 rolls of nickels from the bank that hadn't been opened since 1970. Two of the rolls were all war time nickels and they were all green grey, but there was one 1943 that had no corrosion at all. I had no idea this could possibly be an error.
I have a 1943P Nicole it looks just like the one you showed I been saving it for thirty yrs
@@romainelightfoot2788 Did you come filthy rich?
@@romainelightfoot2788 anything yet?
just simply amazing lol😁
I had no idea about this variety. Thanks for the vid!
If it were me, I too would do the drop test. Much quicker with a older worn coin. 👍🏻
Couldn't the weight of the coin be used to determine the composition? Thanks for another video. I currently have about 20,000 wheat cents I'm searching through for errors/varieties. Your videos actually gave me the motivation to get more than what I already had.
I have 1 I Wana sell
@@rachelpotterstout3597 how much?
Don't know for sure but have heard some 1946, nickels are Silver the only to know is weigh them, just a unconfirmed rumor
The weight can't be used as a determinant because both the pre-war and silver coins both weigh five grams. 🙂
Hope you get to feeling better soon.
Feel badly for the man who undervalued his coin.
Merry Christmas BlueRidge. GOD Bless
Appreciate your knowledge,been awhile on coin sites heard you before,glad your on here!!!
I have one of these 1943 Big P Nickels!!
IS IT THE SAME ONE IN THE VIDEO BEING TALKED ABOUT???
It is probably a silver war nickel.
Amazing. All by a simple action.
Awesome, now I can go through my stash of 1940's nickels. Because I save mostly all the 1950's nickels and earlier because of this, "just in case", report comes out, and I can keep my fingers crossed looking desperately through my old dusty collection
Very nice error presentation. Thanks excellent content and review.
Hey just subscribed love the videos. Just started hunting myself, you give great advice. Much appreciated!
Could one use a magnet to test the coin, since steel could be picked up by magnet.
Nickel is non-magnetic... And so is silver
I have a 1945 D nickel that sticks to a magnet!!
I send u a picture of a 1961 penny that was feb.8 of last year I still haven't heard from you since I wonder why thank you.
@@titobaez494 probably because it's jus t a 61 penny...
Did the Denver mint have this type of error as well. I definitely have a 1943 Denver nickle that is not silver, in my collection. I kept it because it seemed different.
I have a 1943-P Nickel and it has a little bit of corrosion on the reverse. I am wondering if it has copper in it that would make it corrode like that. 🤔
I found a 1940 D war coin? Wrong year for it to have a “D” above the bldg. but I got it from Chattanooga sealed unsearched Jefferson Nickel Murphy collection...did I finally find my $ coin?! :)
Merri Lundin if it has a mint mark over Monticello then it has the reserve design but it may be just nickel since 42-45 we're the only war nickels
Merri Lundin Is the "D" convex or concave? Is it punched in, or is it risen out like the rest of the coins features? I ask because I often find them with a punched in mint mark above Monticello building. I believe people may have used them as a placeholder in their collections until they come across the correct coin. I know I hate empty spots in my collection. Either that or they sold a large bag of silver nickels and figured they could get away with throwing in some regular nickels as long as they had a stamp on the back.
Merri Lundin now if your coin has a raised up mint mark, and is not a silver war nickel, which as you stated it's 1940, than you really have something interesting and quite valuable I would think.
I have an 04 nickel without the in God we trust. I have never heard of this before. Anyone else?
@@ag358
Is it printed on the rim?
I just found 1943 big s on the back nickel an it looks more gold Color an advice on what it is made of?
Yeah thats how mine is..its a faint greenish but very gold color and a matte finsh... Email some pics and i will email you some r pics of mine
I heard some actually had a copper letter to signify the alloy. Just what I heard....
Hello I just found 1943 p mint mark, I'm so thrilled that I just it, but I gave my other 1943 p nickel to my daughter. She has been spending some of the coins, hope she hasnt got rid of them. Thank you .
I had watch your video last night 11/24 . I went digging around in my war nickels and found a 1943-P , well it is silver . I'll keep looking . Damn GRIN
I'm so glad I went to the gas station this evening.. got my change back and to my eyes it was a 1943-P nickel... wow, my blood pressure is up...YES, it's for sale..
I have one exactly the same how do I find out if it's worth
Me to I have one exactly the same
I have a couple of these in my collection. One is a light grey and other one is dark. 1943 P I have had these for decades.
Thanks for the updates I'm looking at that same coin right now, it does have a lamination error on the obverse, I am sending it to get graded. The 1943 P Jefferson Nickel, clad not silver. I know you're interested so I'll keep you posted. Thanks again. I did subscribe and hit a thumbs up.
Be careful with that grading.i have the same coin, but unsure about sending it to a stranger.good luck my friend.
@@jesusramos1440 Thanks for the comment have had reservations myself. Still researching.
I have a 1943 P that has delamination on the obverse from the top of jeffersons head down to his neck, following where his spinal column would be. It bleeds through into the Reverse side. My question is will a silver manganese delaminate more than, or equal to its zinc counterpart, or will it NOT delaminate? Would that be a way to determine the composition of my coin?
Wow, everybody has one!
I have 2 lol
Right. If it was this common, it would be worthless
I knew there had to be transitional mistakes for the war nickel. I'm sure there's also silver nickels that aren't supposed to be but unless someone knows exactly what to look for they'll miss it
Which is...?
I've got one adzactly identical to it also have a 1942 sanfrancisco stamped above the Monticello building.found through searching through nickel rolls.
Hey there , love watching learning new things !! Thank you for the information you provide. I have 2 pennies that have extreme errors was wanting r
To share with you and see what you can tell .e about them.
I have four nickel jefferson 1942S 1943P 1944D 1945D how much value
$50.00, he said in the video he had put together a set for $50.00 in the past. Ofcourse, tge "set" does not include the "copper planchet" nickel.... that sold for $11,000.00 at auction in August, 2019.
I have a 1943-with a P on reverse,is it worth anything,let me know please,I am new at this.Thanks
Probably only like $1. The narrator said that in the begining
Blue Ridge if you help me sell this particular corn I will be very grateful to you and bless you with something call me please
How about a drop test into a concave glass glass? Smooth landing and sound amplification..??? Good idea?
Thanks for the info I got one .....
I have a 1946 dark nickle no mint mark
Pretty impressive but I have a penny from 1980s made out of steel and it wasn’t material error
Gaming Ballz I have a 1946, looks like missing clad, can still see steps clearly, also have a 1968 S, 6 full steps, Cameo, says fingerprint, very hard to see, beautiful coin, not sure if they are worth anything. Also have 2 1971, BU, beautiful, full steps, not graded.

Sir i have one. Im a general manager at a restaurant and found it counting down a couple hundred in change.
Good afternoon Blueridge, I have been a watcher for a very long time. I was going through my hand rolled nickels tonight and I am more than sure i found this. May I please send Yiou pics of it as it also has alot of erros on the reverse, the drop test sounds like a thud, not even close to my siver 43 nickel. Thank You so very much for the years of anazing videos and the inspiration to keep going even when things seem grim :)
Pronounced Mont ah sell oh
I can't believe it today is my best day ever I just found one in my change
I have one! I found it last year!

I have a 1943 P that has delamination on the obverse from the top of jeffersons head down to his neck, following where his spinal column would be. It bleeds through into the Reverse side. My question is will a silver manganese delaminate more than, or equal to its zinc counterpart, or will it NOT delaminate? Would that be a way to determine the composition of my coin?
any idea what the specific gravity should be?
THANK you Shaun. I am the transitional year hunter believe it or not. EXCECTIONAL JOB my TEACHER. I THANK YOU
I think I am looking at a knicker look just like that 1942
I had a injury at work and back in March and I've been at home a lot.. started going through my coins and watching love these videos. Long story short I have a good metal detector, and even before I watched your video this coin stood out to me.. so did the test, with dimes, quarters and nickel. Including a buffalo nickel & my nickel from 1943-P and two other Nickel a bit later in that century.. they all come up as nickel on the metal detector -the dimes and quarters comes up as silver on the detector.. sure I need to get it tested little bit more but I think I have a 1943-P nickel.. I could use some advice. I have never got a coin graded or put one in a auction.
I proof read that after I sent it " I think I have a 1943-P with Nickel in it" I think it's a very good possibility.. could use some advice on how to get that certified.. and if I sent it in to get it graded will they do that. To see if it has Nickel in it..
I have a 1945 error Jefferson made in copper non silver. You can test it by dropping it or you can flip it and hear the difference or spin it on a wood table and hear the ringing sound when it starts to fall. Definitely sounds like a copper nickel over the silver nickels. I'm thinking of selling it I have it on ebay but might send it to pcgs so i can have it verified and get more for it.
Why don't you just throw it in the air and hit it with a baseball bat or scrub on it with a wire brush or something too while you're at it. 🤭
Good information 🤗 updated !
Thanks. I do have one.
Great info thanks
I think i have one of these. It's the 1943 P and it's darker gray and has a higher ping sound to it. Any offers on what to do with it?
I have one and it’s in very good condition. Wow I’m soooo happy!!!
I have this coin!!! I had no idea it was error or rare! It has the big P and 1943...and blue hue...
I have both a 1942 and 1943 P
. I did the drop test and yes theres a noticeable difference in sound. Mine has more wear than yours but its still for sale.
I was researching a 1943P Jefferson nickel and I am fairly certain I have the nickel your friend liked
Does the magnet test distinguish copper and silver work here or is that for steel?
Hi ive got 2 43's exactly like these ive been carrying around for 45 yrs. They look just the ones u have still dont know what to do with them. Any suggestions?
I found one last week - 1943 P- greenish tint- darker than other nickels
we have this exact coin and have been wondering where to send it off to get it graded so we can sell it?
You can take it to your local coin dealer. 🙂
Thank you for your video.
I’ve got something essential opt.. to share⤴,
That's crazy I have that nickel and I'll give it to you for fifteen Grand had it for years never thought it was worth so thanks
I have one in my hand right now after going through my collection . Silver traditional error with the P . I will sell . 1943
Hi Brent Dapo did u find weather your 1943P nickel was real and did u sell it I got one I want sale try find where would I take to or sent to
Blue Hound,
I have several coins, all from pocket change, that I have listened to you talk about.
They are valuable beyond belief, as follows:
1926 f indian head buffalo nickel; 1943 p non-silver nickel; 1946 s, with the trumpet tail; a 1972 d nickel that I believe is either aluminum or steel.
I am apprehensive about sending them to grading via the mails, but don't know of anything else to do.
Please advise.
You can take them to your local coin dealer to be looked at. 🙂
Yes I have a 1943 large P nickle I did one drop test and that high pitch sound don't seem to happen as some silver coins I have
Hi i have a 42p,43p,43s and a 44p also 42d and 42 no mark thanks for the information
just organized my jefferson nickel collection as a pocket change coolector.the only war nickel i found,is as pictured in ur pic.'43 P.
Sir I have one of these. I have did the sound test like you said and compared it to other Nickels of the same year and this one sounds just like a normal nickel when dropped. I have taken it to a local coin shop and the coin dealer there was an old man who didn't seem to want to help me. He said he was tired of people bringing in coins to him that have errors and that I should stop watching RUclips videos about errors because it's bringing him a lot of unwanted customers that think that they have error coins. He also said that it's made of silver by just looking at it with the big P mint mark on the back. I tried to explain that it was a transitional error I just needed it tested to see if it had silver and he told me "no" and that he wasn't going to waste his time. Any suggestions on what I should do next? Should I just send it in to a grading company to see if they can determine if it's silver? I can tell that it's a normal nickel by just the look of it and the way it sounded on the drop test.
I have a 1943 P nickel with a possible grade of 65. It is still very silvery in color. Where will I send it for authentication?
I have one ..it's dark kinda blue and it's worn a bit but clear as hell it one of em
I'm getting a good picture of what's happening with numismatics. Books, charts and the plethora of information available is a great idea and the auction sites that offer free information about anything you want to discover about your collection and using you tube as a last resort. IMO
Thanks.
I have a 1943 P nickel with a very interesting strike pattern. Also, I'm not sure how to tell if it is silver or copper/nickel.
I think i have one, a 1943p coppet transitional nickle. What do i do now?
Is the transition error for the 1943 war time nickel does only apply to Philadelphia mint or can also be found on the S mint?
Hi blue ridge I might have that nickel. I'm organizing my coins and found this, so I came straight to the best. And of course you had a video on it. How would I get a pic to you? I'll split it with you. I'll try your other social media accounts. Hope we have it.
Hello my name is Nick,
Am i understanding this video correct on the 43 war nickel transitional error, on a drop test, the copper nickel coin on the 1943 would sound more like a 1940 or 1941 vs 1945 or later and that would be the one worth more ?
If that is the case i may have one of the transitional errors and wondered if you may have any other suggestions on what my next step would be to confirm if it is or not, im pretty new to collecting and would greatly appreciate any honest input.
Thank you
Nick
Its the one on the left..its not bluish grwy but more of a bownish green tacky looking metal and makes marking look crisp, clean, and bold
Thumbs up 👍 blesses to all 🌍
I just found one 1943 nickel. And this is why I had to see what you had to say. The coin is warn and a little light on the weight. Do wish me luck as if it is the right coin it will be on the market. Wishful thinking 🤔 I know.
Would it be possible for this nickle to also be the nickle that has the 3 over the 2 I ask because initially my grandfather had it marked as the possible 3 over 2 error and I am almost positive I could see that error but the coin just looks very unique it stands out as far as it’s color compared to the rest of the nickels I have from the same years and I stumbled across this video doing research on my new gotten collection of coins I appreciate the information and help
I found 3 in my coins. They've been in my jewelry box since the 80s. I don't hear a difference when I do the drop test. I guess I need to find a coin shop.
