(heads side) of a United States Jefferson nickel, a five-cent coin. The coin features a profile of Thomas Jefferson, the third U.S. President, as designed by Felix Schlag. The inscription "IN GOD WE TRUST" is visible to the left of the portrait, although the last letter 'T' in "TRUST"
Obverse Design: Features a profile portrait of Thomas Jefferson, used from 1938 until 2004.
Composition: The standard composition is 75% copper and 25% nickel. However, nickels minted from mid-1942 to 1945 ("War Nickels") were made of an alloy containing 35% silver, 56% copper, and 9% manganese to conserve nickel for the war effort.
Motto: "IN GOD WE TRUST" has appeared on most U.S. coins since the Civil War and has been required on all coins since 1938.
Error Feature: The incomplete inscription "TRUST" is an example of an error that occurs when the coin blank (planchet) is struck off-center or is misaligned during the minting process.
