Description
Cataloged by the Wexler Team, this 1955-D Jefferson Nickel bears a D/S over mintmark variety cross-referenced as CONECA OMM #1, Cherrypickers FS-05-1955D-501 (034), and Breen #2739 — an extensively documented variety with broad recognition across major attribution services. Wexler Variety ID: 1955-D 5-cent WOMM-001. Reverse die markers include two die scratches running SW from the bottom left of the L in PLURIBUS, several die scratches running NNW to SSE through the second U in UNUM, and two parallel die scratches running ENE from the right side of the M through the O of MONTICELLO. Composed of 75% copper and 25% nickel at 5.0 grams and 21.21 mm, the 1955-D is among the most celebrated over mintmark varieties in the Jefferson series, widely pursued by Cherrypickers.
