My father says this coin has it but I can’t find any information online about them. Firstly, does it have it? Secondly, if it does, does it make it more desirable or profitable because I’m selling it to someone in a bulk deal.

    This seemed like deja vu. A search and it was.

    Sorry to hear. I have a spotty memory. Sometimes I remember stuff from way back. Then other times I walk into the other room to get something. I then walk back forgetting what I went into the other room to get.

    The small S was normal for 1941... So no premium that I know of.... Cheers, RickO

    From Bruce Fox's book on Walker's:
    Jim

    MINTAGE: 8,098,000
    VARIETIES: V 101 - Small “S” (Normal) (Breen 5183).
    V 102 - Small “S” (Normal). “S” punched over horizontal “S” (Breen 5184, RPM #1 and CONE E-02).
    V 103 - Large “S” as in 1943-1947. “S” leans to right and has pronounced, sharp serifs (Breen 5185).

    The Jefferson Nickel also sports both small and large S for 1941.

    I just sent it off an approval with someone for around $350 ish. He gets me almost zero fees at an auction house when I send coins in so it’s a good trade off.

    Yeah unless there are hairlines I am not seeing, I might send it to PCGS for reconsideration (or to CAC for possible gold sticker). If that is the case it will probably not be coming back from approval.
