“In commemoration of the Louisiana Purchase, and Lewis and Clark’s expedition, the President enacted Public Law 108-15 to modify the Jefferson five-cent coin (nickel) in 2003, 2004 and 2005, to reflect images evocative of their historic expedition into the Louisiana Territory. A depiction of Monticello will return to the nickel in 2006. The obverse will continue to bear the likeness of President Jefferson.”

  1. FANTASTIC, another coin everyone is going to want to collect. The mint really needs to talk to the bankers before they start doing this stuff. This is also costing us tax dollars. Leave the money alone!

  2. I like the commerative coins and thanks for letting me know why they were changed. I was a bit unknowning though I have seen the new 2004 nickels around. It says that there are 2003 ones as well. What do those look like? I dont believe that I have seen any of those.

  3. Just got harass your bank, go ask for a 2003 “D” Mint nickel or something. Gets on my nerves.

  4. Yeah I was checking out the other day and I dropped a nickle when searching for a quarter and the cashier said, “Yeah everyone’s been getting those new nickles confused with the quarters.” I was like, “New nickles??” So I looked at it. Yeah they are not like other nickles but they’re not like quarters either so I’m not sure how people get them confused. Anyway, thanks for telling us about the new nickles. You were a few days too late for me though!

  5. Chris,
    No one is going to respond to my posts on your page b/c they won’t want to read them. That takes me out of the conversation and will make it harder for me to win the prize! Are you trying to keep me from winning the prize? How rude!

  6. No I wont go harrass the teller asking for the special nickels or quarters. I like the challenge of finding them on my own. Hmm…so I guess I will have to watch out for the 2003 Nickels granted I dont know what they look like.

  7. PLEASE ASHLEE, stop the hard to read comments. I’ve stopped reading them, hurts my head too much to try to figure it out.

  8. Sorry Jeff, the crazy messages are out of my control. When you’re a |-|4|

  9. That’s cool…
