A 1943-P nickel in average condition is worth 75 cents to a dollar because it contains a bit less than two grams of silver. A 1954 nickel couldn't have a P mint mark because that letter didn't appear on nickels from 1946 to 1979 inclusive. However 1954 is a common date; in average condition its retail value is only about a dime. To explain the presence of silver in a 1943 nickel, it's a special "war nickel" minted during WWII. War nickels were made of an alloy of 56% copper, 35% silver, and 9% manganese because nickel metal was needed for the war effort. Minting began in late 1942 and continued until the end of 1945. The large mint mark letter over the dome of Monticello on the back was used to indicate the composition change.
The value of a US steel cent from 1943 depends on its condition and mint mark. Generally, these coins are not made of steel but rather copper-coated zinc. In average circulated condition, it may be worth around 10-25 cents. However, if it is in excellent condition or has a rare mint mark like the "S" mint mark, its value could be higher.

People counterfeit all sorts of coins and I can not say the 1943-D nickel was never one of them but I am not aware of any major counterfeiting scheme involving that coin. However, it is suspected that as many as 100,000 counterfeit 1944 war nickels may have been released into circulation. They are the same weight and composition as an authentic nickel but there is no mint mark above Monticello.
