coins \ Coin \ United States of America \ 5¢ (Five Cents, Nickel, Half Dime) \ Jefferson Nickels \ 1999 \ Denver
Collectible coins, particularly the five-cent nickel known as the Jefferson Nickel, feature the effigy of President Thomas Jefferson. Minted by the United States of America, these coins were first introduced in 1938, replacing the Buffalo Nickel. The 1999 Jefferson Nickel, minted in Denver, holds significance for collectors due to its historical context and potential variations in the minting process. Collectors often seek such coins for their historical, artistic, and numismatic value, with certain years and mint marks fetching higher premiums. The Half Dime, a precursor to the nickel, was once a popular denomination before the introduction of larger coins.
