1968-D Jefferson Nickel BU
The 1968 Jefferson nickel represents a classic era of United States coinage, struck at the Denver Mint. This particular specimen is preserved in Brilliant Uncirculated condition, meaning it retains the original luster and sharp details from when it first left the coining press over half a century ago. On the obverse side, the coin features a profile portrait of Thomas Jefferson, designed by Felix O. Schlag. Accompanying his likeness is the familiar national motto, "IN GOD WE TRUST." The reverse side displays a detailed vignette of Monticello, Jefferson's historic Virginia estate. The design showcases the neoclassical architecture of the home, surrounded by the traditional inscriptions "E PLURIBUS UNUM," "FIVE CENTS," "MONTICELLO," and "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA."
