Description
1948 Jefferson Nickel Coin Collectible - Very Fine condition, see photos. The 1948 Jefferson Nickel is a cornerstone of the post-World War II era, produced during a time of economic expansion as the United States transitioned back to a peacetime economy. Struck at all three major mints—Philadelphia, Denver (D), and San Francisco (S)—this issue is part of the original Felix Schlag design period, prior to the major composition changes seen during the war years. While the Philadelphia and Denver mintages were robust, the 1948-S is the standout for collectors, with a significantly lower production of approximately 11.3 million coins. This makes the San Francisco strike a "semi-key" date for the series, often commanding a premium over its counterparts in higher grades.
