- The obverse design for the 2005 nickels will bear, for the first time in 67
years, a new likeness of America’s third president, Thomas Jefferson. The
“Liberty” inscription on the coin is based upon Jefferson’s own handwriting. The second of two new reverses on the 2005-dated nickel features
a design based on a photograph by Andrew E. Cier of Astoria,
Oregon - visually depicts the expedition`s exultation on believing they had
finally reached the Pacific Ocean after so many months of arduous travel. In commemoration of the bicentennials of the Louisiana Purchase and the Lewis
and Clark expedition, the President enacted Public Law 108-15 to modify the
Jefferson 5-cent coin (nickel) to reflect images evocative of the historic
expedition into the Louisiana Territory.
- Each
coin is a limited edition that can never be made again, and just a small fraction
of all coins have been set aside by the Merrick Mint for these spectacular collections.

of Authenticity and Black Felt Display box with Acrylic 2-sided viewable holders as shown
