History, Information, and Value of 2002-P Jefferson Nickel

Value of 2002-P Jefferson Nickel

The only thing to look out for with the 2002-P Jefferson Nickel is a possible mule on the market. This happens when a nickel obverse was accidently struck with a lincoln cent reverse. These can be rare. Otherwise the Jefferson Nickel is common.

The obverse text on the Jefferson Nickel reads “In God We Trust, Liberty, P (Philadelphia Mint)” and the reverse text reads “E Pluribus Unum, Monticello, Five Cents, 5, United States of America.” The obverse of the coin has a bust of President Thomas Jefferson facing the left and the reverse depicts the full Monticello house built by Jefferson. Most Jefferson Nickel Five Cent pieces are worth face value. However, some of the coins have silver content or are less common. These coins may be worth slightly more. Any local coin dealer will try to buy these coins for face value, but our experts will make you an offer based on current auction values. If your coin is a better date coin or a rare coin, then rest assured that we will offer you top dollar! Please feel free to contact one of our experts to have them take a look at your rare coin and determine its worth. We are rare coin dealers!
