Jefferson Nickels are a series of five-cent coins minted in the United States, featuring a portrait of Thomas Jefferson on the obverse and Monticello on the reverse. The 1948 Jefferson Nickel is notable as it was the first year of the return to regular minting after World War II, with the Denver mint mark (D) indicating it was produced at the Denver Mint. Collectors often seek this coin for its historical significance and relative scarcity, especially in high grades.
