The 1950 5-cent nickel, commonly referred to as the Jefferson nickel, is a collectible coin from the United States mint. This particular year is noteworthy due to its relatively low mintage, especially the 1950-D variety, which has made it more sought after by collectors. The design features President Thomas Jefferson on the obverse and Monticello, his estate, on the reverse. Collectors often seek coins in high grades, which can significantly increase their market value. Rolls of 1950 nickels can contain a mix of these valuable coins, and their condition is paramount for determining collector interest and pricing.
