{"product_id":"2014-s-proof-jefferson-nickel","title":"2014-S Proof Jefferson Nickel","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis 2014-S Proof Jefferson Nickel is a San Francisco proof issue from the long-running Jefferson nickel series, struck specifically for collectors rather than for circulation. Proof coins are made with specially prepared dies and polished planchets, giving them sharper detail, more reflective fields, and a more carefully finished appearance than standard business-strike nickels. That makes a 2014-S proof an appealing choice for collectors who want a cleaner, presentation-quality example of this classic five-cent design.\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Jefferson nickel was introduced in 1938, replacing the Buffalo nickel and beginning a new chapter in U.S. five-cent coin design. Created by Felix Schlag, the series features Thomas Jefferson on the obverse and Monticello on the reverse. By 2014, the design had already been a familiar part of American coinage for decades, and San Francisco proof issues continued the Mint’s tradition of producing specially struck collector versions alongside regular circulation coins from Philadelphia and Denver.\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCollectors continue to enjoy proof Jefferson nickels because they offer a more refined version of a familiar U.S. coin without being prohibitively expensive. A 2014-S proof works well in a Jefferson nickel date run, a proof set collection, or a broader modern U.S. collection focused on San Francisco Mint issues. That last sentence is an inference based on the coin’s proof format, mint, and series role.\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSpecifications \u0026amp; Mintage\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDenomination: Five Cents\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSeries: Jefferson Nickel\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDesigner: Jamie Franki \/ Felix Schlag\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eComposition: 75% Copper, 25% Nickel\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWeight: 5.00 grams\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDiameter: 21.20 mm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eEdge: Plain\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMint: San Francisco\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMintage: 1,190,369\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eYears of Issue: 1938–present\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eReverse Type: Monticello Reverse\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eItem Details\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis listing includes one 2014-S Jefferson Nickel struck in Proof format.
