Description
This listing is for one 1939 Jefferson Nickel, as pictured, choose by grade / condition. First struck in 1913, the Buffalo nickel had long been difficult to coin, & after it completed the 25-year term during which it could only be replaced by Congress, the Mint moved quickly to replace it with a new design. The Mint conducted a design competition, in early 1938, requiring that Jefferson be depicted on the obverse & Jefferson's house Monticello on the reverse. Schlag won the competition, but was required to submit an entirely new reverse & make other changes before the new piece went into production in October 1938. 1939 Jefferson Nickel - MS60 (Uncirculated) - Philadelphia Mint - 1939 P Jefferson Nickel BU 1939 Jefferson Nickel - Choose By Grade, Circulated To Ms60 | Uncirculated Philadelphia Mint P Bu
