Join us on a captivating journey back to 1979, as we delve deep into the fascinating world of U.S. Nickels minted during that era.
In this comprehensive look at the 1979 Jefferson nickels, we explore how three distinctive mints - Philadelphia, Denver, and San Francisco - brought these coins to life. Each mint's version carries unique attributes, and our video examines each coin's specifics, unraveling the story behind its minting and how these nuances impact its value today.
We start our journey with the Philadelphia mint's 1979 No Mint mark Jefferson nickel. With the highest circulation in 1979, these nickels lack a mint mark, a signature feature of this mint. Even though they were the most common, you'll be surprised to discover their worth can range up to $2000 in perfect condition.
Next, we'll shift our attention to the 1979 D Jefferson nickel from the Denver mint. Despite being plentiful, their value can skyrocket above $2000 for pristine specimens, with a record sale of $4500 for a coin graded 1979 D MS 67.
Finally, we arrive at the uniquely alluring 1979 S proof Jefferson nickels from the San Francisco Mint. As the only mint that crafted proof nickels in 1979, we'll explore the two distinct types of "S" mint mark coins. Learn how to distinguish between a Type 1 (filled S) and a Type 2 (clear-cut S), and uncover why the clear S specimens are considered rarer and more valuable.
Our video is more than just a numismatic exposition; it's a journey through time, a look at history in your hands, and a guide to understanding what makes the humble nickel more than just pocket change. If you've ever been curious about the treasures hiding in plain sight, this video is for you.
