Collectible coins, particularly those from the United States, encompass a variety of denominations and series. The Jefferson Nickel, a five-cent coin, was first issued in 1938 and features a portrait of Thomas Jefferson. The 1962 Jefferson Nickel is notable for its minting during a time of coin shortages and its association with significant events in U.S. history. The term "Half Dime" refers to a historical denomination that was minted before the establishment of the nickel, originally equal to five cents. Collectors often seek specific years, mint marks, and variations to enrich their collections, making these coins valuable in numismatic circles.
