1946 Jefferson Nickel

Add this 1946 Jefferson nickel to your collection! This issue marked the return of the nickel composition. In 1942, the composition had been changed to a 35% silver alloy, saving nickel for the war effort. The pre-war mint mark style was also resumed and once again, issues from the Philadelphia Mint did not bear a mint mark. An issue that is essential for anyone hoping to build a complete date and mint mark collection.
