The 1943 Denver Jefferson Nickel (5c) is a notable collectible coin issued by the United States Mint. It features a portrait of Thomas Jefferson on the obverse and Monticello on the reverse. This particular year is significant due to the use of a different metallic composition, as silver was substituted in some wartime nickels, which adds to its collectible appeal. The Denver mint mark, indicated by a "D," indicates that it was produced at the Denver Mint, making it a sought-after piece among numismatists.
