Description
The 2005 (P) Jefferson Nickel - Ocean in View was struck at the Philadelphia Mint as a nickel in the Jefferson Nickels Westward Journey 2004-2005 series. The U.S. Mint produced 394.1 million examples, making this the lowest mintage among 5 mint variants, representing only 18% of total production. The obverse features two different obverse portraits: a modified Schlag portrait (2004) and a new forward-facing portrait by Joe Fitzgerald (2005) and the reverse displays four commemorative designs: the Peace Medal (2004), Keelboat (2004), American Bison (2005), and Ocean in View (2005). A modern issue from an era of rotating coin designs, collector-focused programs, and renewed interest in numismatic artistry. The Philadelphia Mint, America's oldest coin-making facility, has struck coins continuously since 1792. Estimated market value ranges from $0 to $1 depending on grade and condition. Struck in 75% copper, 25% nickel, weighing 5 grams, 21.2 mm in diameter, with a plain edge. Cataloged as PCGS #4160.
