Five Cents 2022 Jefferson Nickel, Coin from United States - detailed information

The obverse of the coin shows, within a plain border, the portrait of Thomas Jefferson (1743 - 1826) - the third President of the United States (1801 - 1809), facing the viewer.

The artists' initials are incuse in small letters - on the left side on his collar, JNF for designer Jamie N. Franki, and lower and to the right, DW for sculptor Donna Weaver.

Around above right, the motto IN GOD WE TRUST.

Horizontal, to the right of the portrait, the inscription Liberty in Thomas Jefferson's own handwriting (from the 2005 one-year obverse). The small letters were traced from his draft of the Declaration of Independence; as the word is never capitalised in that document, the capital L is borrowed from Jefferson's other writings.

Below, the date of issue: 2022.

The mint mark for Denver, Philadelphia or San Francisco is a small letter D, P or S respectively, located below the date.

Surrounded by a plain rim, the reverse of the coin shows at its centre the main building of Monticello - the main residence of Thomas Jefferson which he designed himself. Below that, its name: MONTICELLO.

Around below that, the value and denomination in words: FIVE CENTS.

Around above, the motto E PLURIBUS UNUM (from Latin: "Out of many, one").

Around below in larger letters, the legend UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.

The designer's initials FS (for Felix Schlag), are to the right of the building.

The Philadelphia Mint and the Denver Mint struck only circulation coins this year. The San Francisco Mint struck only collector coins.
