coins \ Coin \ United States of America \ 5c \ Jefferson Nickels \ 1964
Jefferson Nickels, minted in the United States starting in 1938, feature a portrait of Thomas Jefferson on the obverse and Monticello on the reverse. The 1964 Jefferson Nickel is particularly notable as it was produced during a period of significant circulation, making high-quality examples valuable due to their limited availability in uncirculated condition. Collectors often seek specific dates, mint marks, or unique variations, and the 1964 coin remains a popular choice for both novice and experienced numismatists. The standard denomination of 5 cents is accompanied by a composition of 75% copper and 25% nickel.
