Overview

Historical significance

This coin represents the current modern design of the Jefferson nickel, which was updated in 2006 following the Westward Journey Nickel Series. It honors Thomas Jefferson, the third U.S. President and primary author of the Declaration of Independence. The 'D' mint mark represents the Denver Mint.

Estimated value

$0.05 (Face Value). In uncirculated condition, it may be worth slightly more to collectors, typically $0.25 - $1.00.

Care & preservation

To maintain its condition, handle the coin only by its edges to avoid transfer of skin oils. Store in a cool, dry place within an acid-free holder or flip. Do not clean or polish the coin, as this can cause permanent damage to the surface and significantly reduce collector value.
