Whitman U.S. Jefferson Nickel Coin Folder 1962-1995 Volume 2 #9039

The 1938 Jefferson nickel was originally designed by Felix Sclag. The beloved Jefferson nickel coin had Sclag's designed until 2004, when the "Westward Journey" Nickels came to life. Each year, from 2004-2006, new obverse and reverse designs for the Jefferson nickels were minted. During World War II, 1942-1945, the composition of the Jefferson nickel changed. No nickel was used to make the Jefferson coins during this period. Those nickels were made of 56% copper, 35% silver and 9% manganese, each weighing 1.59 grams. Jefferson nickels now and before the wartime period are made of 75% copper and 25% nickel, each weighing 5 grams. All Jefferson nickels are 21.2 mm in diameter.
