The 1989 Jefferson Nickel is part of the long-running series minted since 1938.
It's a common coin, but certain mint errors can increase its collectible value.
Look for Full Steps (FS) designation, indicating a well-struck coin with high value.
Uncirculated coins or those with a mint mark 'S' can be more valuable to collectors.
Check for off-center strikes, die breaks, or doubled dies, which are rare and sought after.
The 1989-D (Denver) nickel may carry a premium if in top condition.
Proof coins from 1989, especially with deep cameo finishes, are also collectible.
Store your nickels properly to prevent damage and preserve their value over time.
Consult coin value guides or a professional appraiser for the most accurate valuation.
