The 1969 Denver nickel, commonly referred to as the "coin" or "5c" in the context of U.S. collectible currency, is part of the Jefferson Nickel series that was first introduced in 1938. Nickels from this year are composed of 75% copper and 25% nickel, featuring a design of Thomas Jefferson on the obverse and Monticello, Jefferson's estate, on the reverse. Collectors often seek out mint rolls of nickels to obtain coins directly from the source, ensuring high-quality, uncirculated specimens for their collections. The 1969 Denver mint mark indicates the coin was struck at the Denver Mint, which is one of the U.S. Mint's main facilities.
