Description: The 1803 five cent coin, also known as the Jefferson nickel, is a historic coin that was issued by the United States Mint. The coin features a portrait of Thomas Jefferson on the obverse, and the words "Liberty" and "In God We Trust" on either side. The reverse of the coin depicts Jefferson's home, Monticello, with the words "United States of America" and "E Pluribus Unum" (which means "Out of Many, One") above and below the image.The 2004 Louisiana Purchase nickel was a special commemorative edition of the Jefferson nickel, issued to mark the bicentennial anniversary of the Louisiana Purchase. The Louisiana Purchase was a historic land deal between the United States and France, in which the US acquired a huge swath of land in the Midwest and West, including the present-day states of Louisiana, Arkansas, Missouri, Iowa, and parts of Minnesota, North Dakota, South Dakota, Nebraska, Oklahoma, Kansas, and Montana. The 2004 Louisiana Purchase nickel is notable for its unique design, which includes an image of a hand holding a peace pipe and a tomahawk, along with the words "Louisiana Purchase" and the date "1803". This design was created by artist Alfred Maletsky and was selected through a public competition. The coin is still in circulation today, and its historical significance and unique design make it a popular choice among coin collectors.
