Thomas Jefferson succeeded John Adams as the third President of the United States, and was responsible for the largest expansion of the United States in its history when he purchased the Louisiana Territory from the French. The purchase more than doubled the size of the fledgling nation, and secured Jefferson’s place in history.
President Jefferson still appears on the modern, American circulation nickel coin. A special 2005 release featured a reworked portrait of the president as part of the Westward Journey commemorative release marking his expansion of the country.
On the obverse of the 5 oz Antique Jefferson Skull Hobo Nickel Silver Round is the image of a skull in place of Jefferson’s right-profile portrait. The image also includes engravings found on the 2005 release, which include “In God We Trust” and “Liberty,” along with a year of issue for that coin of “2005.”
The reverse of all Jefferson Skull Hobo Nickel Silver Rounds includes the image of a hobo in the foreground, walking along with the aid of his walking stick and carrying all of his Earthly belongings in a humble knapsack over his shoulder. The train in the background puffs out smoke that looks a lot like the buffalo’s back from Buffalo Nickels.
Each 5 oz Antique Jefferson Skull Hobo Nickel Silver Round listed here has an antique finish, which is highlighted by the addition of warmth and subtle detail to the overall finish and appearance of the silver round. Your product ships in a protective plastic capsule, includes a Certificate of Authenticity, and features edge lettering that highlights the serial number, weight, purity, and metal content of the round.
