1943-P Silver War Nickel INB Graded Slabbed
1943-P Jefferson Silver War Nickel INB Graded Slabbed
This 1943-P Jefferson Silver War Nickel is a significant piece of World War II history, struck at the Philadelphia Mint. During the war years of 1942 to 1945, the United States replaced the nickel content of the five-cent piece with a 35% silver alloy to conserve nickel for military use. This specific coin is easily identified by the large "P" mint mark located above the dome of Monticello on the reverse, a hallmark feature of the silver war series. This specimen comes housed in an International Numismatic Bureau (INB) slab, providing a protective holder that preserves the coin's condition and historical integrity. As a silver issue from the mid-war period, this coin represents a unique time in American numismatics and is a must-have for collectors focusing on wartime currency or Jefferson nickels.
