2005-S Jefferson Nickel Ocean in View Gem Proof
In 2005, the United States Mint released a striking variation of the classic five-cent piece, struck with a brilliant proof finish at the San Francisco Mint. This modern coin showcases a dramatic shift in design, capturing a pivotal moment of American exploration. The obverse presents a detailed portrait of Thomas Jefferson, accompanied by the traditional inscriptions of liberty and trust. This side also bears the distinctive S mint mark, indicating its origin from the San Francisco facility. On the reverse, the coin depicts a scenic vista of the Pacific Ocean as viewed from the shoreline, complete with trees lining the coast. This reverse design is paired with inscriptions referencing the Lewis and Clark expedition, including the historic year 1805 alongside the coin's face value of five cents.
