Best Answer

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.

It's not a nickel. That denomination was first made in 1866. If it looks like a regular Jefferson nickel but is dated 1861 it's either an altered coin or a counterfeit. If it looks like something else it might be a medal or a token.

What you actually have is a counterfeit nickel, known as a Henning nickel. This isn't a war nickel, but instead was a counterfeit nickel created in the mid-1950s, there is a thriving collectors market for them. I've attached a link with more information about the Henning nickels.
