The Jefferson Nickel is a five-cent coin produced by the United States Mint, featuring a portrait of Thomas Jefferson on the obverse and Monticello on the reverse. The 1990 Jefferson Nickel is notable for its minting under the 1938 design, which has remained largely unchanged. This year saw the continued production of both Philadelphia and Denver mint marks, contributing to its collectibility. Jefferson Nickels are popular among numismatists due to their historical significance and the variations that exist, including proofs and older types.
