coins \ Coin \ United States of America \ 5¢ (Five Cents, Nickel, Half Dime) \ Jefferson Nickels \ 1940 \ San Francisco
Collectible coins, such as the Jefferson Nickel, are popular among numismatists. The Jefferson Nickel, produced since 1938, features a depiction of Thomas Jefferson and has various key dates, including those minted in 1940. The San Francisco Mint produced a low mintage during that year, adding to its collectibility. The Half Dime, initially a silver coin, was eventually replaced by the nickel, which now serves as the five-cent denomination in the United States. Collectors often seek specific issues, mint marks, and conditions to enhance their collections.
