1943-S 5C Mint Error NGC AU55 CAC. 1943-S Jefferson 5c Struck on 1c Planchet, 2.7 Grams. Error coins are one of the more fascinating and rewarding areas of numismatics that one can pursue. With millions and even billions of pieces produced each year by the United States Mint, a myriad of different types of errors can occur. While some of these are subtle and rather ordinary, many are dramatic and extremely rare.

The piece seen here is of the latter variety. This extremely interesting type of error is considered a wrong planchet error. According to the 2010 A Guide Book to United States Coins (commonly referred to as The Red Book), this type of error occurs when a coin is struck on a planchet intended for another denomination or of the wrong metal.

The dramatic error piece offered here is exceedingly rare and desirable. A five cent Jefferson nickel design has been struck onto a one cent zinc-coated steel planchet. This is both unique as well as particularly historic owing to the fact that in 1943, due to the shortage of copper due to the war effort, cents were struck in steel. Amazingly preserved, this piece did see light circulation but exhibits only very modest wear. CAC has reviewed and approved this coin as being premium for its assigned grade. This is an exceptional error piece that will most certainly please even the most discriminating collector.
