The 1980 Philadelphia mint mark nickel, commonly referred to as a 5-cent coin, is part of the Jefferson Nickel series first issued in 1938. This specific coin features a portrait of Thomas Jefferson on the obverse and Monticello on the reverse. Collectors often seek out coins from different mint marks and years, and the Philadelphia version lacks a mint mark, distinguishing it from coins produced in other U.S. mints like Denver or San Francisco. The 1980 nickel remains of interest to coin enthusiasts due to its historical significance and the variations that arise from different minting years.
