A 1944 counterfeit wartime nickel would have no collector value and would be considered a novelty item or a curiosity rather than a valuable coin. Its worth would be minimal, likely just a few cents or a small amount to the right collector.
There are no significant rarities within that date range, but there were silver nickels minted from 1942-1945. So if you have one coin from each mint for each year, then in circulated condition, your set will be worth about $8.00 retail.
The 1944 counterfeit nickel is worth about $15.00 to $20.00.
You may be able to pick up one at a coin show for a lot less.
About 15 years ago, I was able to buy them for $5.00 to $6.00 a coin.
I have currently seen them in coin dealers display cases for $12.00
HistoryThese coins are often called "Henning nickels" after the man who created them, Francis LeRoy Henning. It's estimated that he made as many as a half-million fake nickels in the early 1950s. About 200,000 were put into circulation and the rest were dumped into local rivers when he was found out.
The coins are of remarkably good quality, except for one detail - Henning completely forgot that 1944 nickels carried a large mint mark over the dome of Monticello to indicate their status as special wartime coins made out of silver, copper, and manganes rather than nickel and copper.1943 was the middle of WWII. Post-war means "after the war", i.e. 1946+

Pure Nickel is an element which contains only atoms of Nickel.The metal nickel is an element so by definition it's pure. Coins called nickels are usually made of alloys, i.e. mixtures of various elements. The only two countries whose 5-cent coins have that name are the US and Canada, and the coins' composition varies by year. In fact, there are many years when despite their name, the coins didn't contain any nickel at all; that was usually due to wartime shortages.US Nickels75% copper, 25% nickel: 1866 to late 1942, 1946 to the present56% copper, 35% silver, 9% manganese: late 1942 to 1945Canadian Nickels94.5% steel, 3.5% copper, 2% nickel plating: 2000-present75% copper, 25% nickel: 1982-1999 along with limited use in 2000, 2001, and 200699.9% nickel (effectively pure): 1922-1942, 1946-1951, 1955-1981steel plated with chrome: 1944-1945 and 1951-1954tombac (88% copper, 12% zinc): 1942-1943
