I guess I had too much time on my hands today, so I decided to look at my bu War nickels and noticed a 1943-p( which definitely isn't BU) date looked strange. Do any of you guys have an opinion on what the real status of this 1943 P is. Is it a 3 over 2 or just 43 P. Thanks for your thoughts.

Not the 3 over 2. Looks like a small cut or scrape PMD
Here is a pic from PCGS Coinfacts. It's a good place to check if you think you found a significant variety
@Oldhoopster Thanks for the explanation and example picture. It's really great when members on this forum are willingly and openly sharing their knowledge.

remember many of these war nickels were well used in everyday life so many will be beat up, worn and such yours is a well worn nickel with Post mint damage
