These are neat. I have some. Unfortunately I'm unable to tell from the color of the image.
What leads you to think it is missing chrome?
It looks like the ones I have, and since it is worn I would expect it to be rusted if bare metal.
Error and Variety article from Canadacoins.
As this was the end of World War II and the demand for copper and zinc was high, 5 cents coins of 1944 and 1945 were produced in steel coated with nickel and chrome plated. Only a small amount of 5 cents coins of 1944 and 1945 were not chrome plated. These coins are differentiated by their duller appearance.> @JBK said:
There a question mark on my post, meaning that I am asking for advice. I'm not stating that it is missing chrome.
If you have a random nickel from that era with no specific signs of missing chrome, why even wonder?
Life is too short....
your wright, life is too short man......
