The 1969 Jefferson Nickel is part of the long-running series minted since 1938.
These coins are composed of 75% copper and 25% nickel, a standard blend for nickels.
Most 1969 nickels hold face value, but errors or high grades can increase their worth.
Key factors: condition, mint mark, and rarity determine a coin's collectible value.
Look for Full Steps (FS) designation, indicating a well-struck coin with high value.
Special finds: 'Double Die' errors or coins without a mint mark can be worth more.
The 1969-S nickel with a clear 'S' mint mark is a sought-after collectible.
Proof coins from 1969, with mirror-like surfaces, are also prized by collectors.
Always consult a professional for accurate grading and valuation of your coins.
