Owner Comments:

All three mints turned out vast quantities of Jefferson nickels until 1954, then San Francisco halted production for 14 years, resuming only from 1968 to 1970. Since 1970 all nickels for circulation have been minted at Philadelphia and Denver. The 1954-P Jefferson is no different than the rest in this decade having/showing most coins in poor quality. Finding one that's brilliant and white with a full-strike would be considered quite rare.
