The protective holder ensures the preservation of the coin's surfaces and serves as a significant presentation piece for collectors of early Jefferson nickels and wartime coinage. This silver wartime issue is a must-have for those looking to complete a type set or collect significant historical metal compositions. 1942-P Jefferson Silver War Nickel INB Green Label Condition: This 1942 Jefferson Nickel is presented in a holder from the International Numismatic Bureau (INB) with a green label. The coin exhibits a circulated appearance with visible wear on the high points of Thomas Jefferson's portrait and the Monticello reverse. While the INB label categorizes the item within the "Early Jefferson Nickel 1938-1976" series, it does not assign a specific numerical grade. The coin is a business strike produced at the Philadelphia Mint, as evidenced by the large "P" mint mark located above the dome of Monticello on the reverse. This mint mark placement was unique to the "War Nickel" era. Historically, this coin is significant as part of the wartime emergency coinage; due to the need for nickel in the war effort during World War II, the composition was changed to a metal content of 35% silver, 56% copper, and 9% manganese.
