The 1956 nickel is a collectible coin within the United States, featuring the iconic depiction of Thomas Jefferson on the obverse and Monticello on the reverse. This year falls under the series of Jefferson nickels, which were first minted in 1938. The 1956 nickel is particularly notable for its relatively high mintage, but specific variations such as errors or better-conditioned examples can command higher prices among collectors. Rolls of nickels often contain uncirculated coins, appealing to numismatists seeking to complete their collections or invest in classic U.S. coinage.
