Learn More About U.S. Jefferson Nickels (1938-Present)

 

The U.S. Jefferson nickel was first minted in 1938 as a replacement for the Buffalo Nickel. Originally designed by artist Felix Schlag, the Jefferson nickel features a left-facing portrait of Thomas Jefferson, the third president of the United States. On the reverse side is Monticello, Jefferson’s estate home located in Charlottesville, Virginia. It also includes the words “E PLURIBUS UNUM,” “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,” and “FIVE CENTS.” To preserve copper for war efforts during World War II, the composition of the Jefferson nickel was temporarily changed to include silver. Today’s Jefferson nickel is made of 75% copper and 25% nickel. The coin has seen over 100 design, date, and mint combinations and has been struck at Philadelphia, Denver, and San Francisco Mints. With billions of this long-running coin series in circulation, it is relatively easy for any coin collector to acquire them.
