2004-P Peace Medal Nickel

Do you have a nickel and want to know its value? Leave a comment/question

Needed to take a break from the foreign vault. This coin was found at the work cafeteria I took it from someone else but they did not mind, really. Most of my people know I collect. The reason I took it is because most people do not realize or care they made circulating-commemorative nickels.

Peace Medal nickels honor the 1803 Louisiana Purchase with a copy of the Indian Peace Medals made for the original expedition. It features a tobacco pipe, an axe, and hands shaking. This was the first of four new commemorative designs.

 
 

The obverse has the older design but for the second two-fourths of the Westward Journey nickels in 2005 they changed Jefferson. By 2006 when they returned to the Monticello nickels they again changed Jefferson's image.

Here's the stats for these coins...
Type/Country: 5 Cents / United States
Year: 2004-P / Peace Medal
Metal: 75% copper 25% nickel
Mintage: 361,440,000
Value: $0.05 at F-12

Do you have a recent coin and want to know its value? Leave a comment/question and I will do my best to find out the price and history for you.
