Description
This listing is for one 1955 Jefferson Nickel, as pictured. Choose by Grade! 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. The Jefferson collections feature a variety of dates, conditions, & styles that most are unaware of. To see more about the Jefferson Nickel, I would recommend visiting usmint.gov. They have a huge amount of verified & official information. Most people think that the Jefferson Nickel is commonplace (and it is) but there are rarer dates & collectible types. 1955 Jefferson Nickel - Choose by Grade, F-BU (Fine to Uncirculated) Grades - 1955 P Nickel Jefferson 1955 P Philadelphia Mint Nickel 1955 P 1955 Jefferson Nickel - Choose By Grade, F-Bu | Fine To Uncirculated Grades P Philadelphia Mint
