"D" indicates the coin was minted at the Denver Mint. "P" stands for Philadelphia, and "S" for San Francisco.

Nickels made in Philadelphia from 1866 to late 1942 and from 1946 to 1979 don't have a "P".

San Francisco minted nickels for circulation up till 1954, then again from 1968 to 1970. "S"-mint nickels are still made for inclusion in Proof Sets.

1943 penny nickel?

??? Pennies are 1-cent coins, nickels are 5-cent coins. Saying "penny nickel" is like an "inch foot" and doesn't mean anything. Please post a new question after you determine what you have, including its denomination and mint mark (on a cent, there might be a D or S under the date, on a nickel there will be a P, D, or S above the dome of Monticello on the back)
