The 2007 (P) Satin Finish Jefferson Nickel is a special strike nickel struck at the Philadelphia Mint, part of the Jefferson Nickels Return to Monticello 2006 to Date series.

The obverse features Thomas Jefferson facing forward in a three-quarter view, the first forward-facing portrait on a U.S. circulating coin and the reverse displays Monticello in a refined depiction. A modern issue from an era of rotating coin designs, collector-focused programs, and renewed interest in numismatic artistry. Struck at the original U.S. Mint facility, in continuous operation since 1792. Auction record: $50 SP69 03-30-2019 eBay. Struck in 75% copper, 25% nickel, weighing 5 grams, 21.2 mm in diameter, with a plain edge. Cataloged as PCGS #149709.
