Collectible coins, particularly those from the United States, encompass a variety of denominations and types. The 5 cent piece, commonly known as the nickel, is notable for its historical significance and diverse designs. The 1998 nickel is part of the Jefferson series, which has undergone various design changes since its introduction in 1938. Collectors often seek out specific years, such as 1998, for their unique characteristics and potential rarity, with issues like mint marks, errors, and overall condition playing critical roles in their value. Rolls of nickels can also be sought after by collectors for uncirculated examples or specific date varieties.
