Collectible coins, particularly within the United States, include a variety of denominations and designs. The five cents nickel, often referred to as the Jefferson Nickel, features the profile of Thomas Jefferson and was first minted in 1938. The 1974 Denver Mint issue of the Jefferson Nickel is notable among collectors, with variations in mint marks and potential errors affecting its value. The Half Dime, which predated the nickel, was minted in various designs from the late 18th century until the mid-19th century, representing an earlier era of American coinage.
