Authenticity verified.Coin Holders are latest version of PCGS. Background:In 2004 and 2005, the Jefferson nickel featured four different designs to commemorate the bicentennials of the Louisiana Purchase and the Lewis and Clark expedition. The images were evocative of the historic expedition into the Louisiana Territory. The U.S. Mint began the Westward Journey Nickel Series in 2004 with the release of the “Peace Medal” and “Keelboat” nickels. In 2005, a new likeness of Thomas Jefferson appeared on the obverse in recognition of his role in the Louisiana Purchase and commissioning the Lewis and Clark expedition. The “American bison” reverse was representative of the wildlife encountered by the expedition. The second coin of 2005 depicted a scene of the Pacific Ocean, highlighting the expedition’s exultation on believing they had finally reached the Pacific Ocean after many months of travel.In 2006, the nickel returned to its familiar depiction of Monticello on the reverse and an obverse with a portrait of Jefferson facing forward.History of Jefferson Nickle:.The Jefferson nickel has been the five-cent coin struck by the United State Mint since 1938, when it replaced the Buffalo Nickle . From 1938 until 2004, the copper-nickel coin's Obverse featured a profile depiction of Founding Father and third U.S. President Thomas Jefferson. The obverse design used in 2005 was also in profile. Since 2006 Jefferson's portrayal, newly designed faces forward. The coin's reverse is still the original, although in 2004 and 2005 the piece bore commemorative designs.First struck in 1913, the Buffalo Nickle had long been difficult to coin, and after it completed the 25-year term during which it could be replaced only 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 and Jefferson's house Monticello on the reverse. New piece went into production in October 1938.As nickel was a strategic war material during World War II, nickels coined from 1942 to 1945 were struck in a copper-silver-manganese alloy which would not require adjustment to vending machines. They bear a large Mint Mark above the depiction of Monticello on the reverse. In 2004 and 2005, the nickel saw new designs as part of the Westward Journey Nickle Series and since 2006 has borne Monticello in reverse and Faces Forward in Obverse. Thanks for your time and patience.
