Collectible coins, particularly those issued by the United States, encompass various types and denominations. The five cents nickel, known as the Jefferson Nickel, was first introduced in 1938 and features a bust of Thomas Jefferson on the obverse and Monticello on the reverse. Special interest is given to the 2009 Jefferson Nickels, which commemorate the bicentennial of Jefferson's birth and include unique designs. Coins minted in Philadelphia often carry a "P" mintmark, indicating their place of origin, and can be particularly sought after by collectors. The Half Dime, which was produced before the nickel, also holds historical significance as one of the earliest denominations in U.S. coinage.
