1942 - 1945 Silver Jefferson Nickel Value (United States)

U.S. MINT SPECIFICATIONS Denomination: $0.05 Obverse Image: Thomas Jefferson, 3rd President of the United States and author of the Declaration of Independence.
Reverse Image: Monticello, Jefferson's mountaintop home in Virgina.
Metal Composition: 35% silver, 56% copper, 9% manganese Total Weight: 5.00 grams Comments: World War II prompted the rationing of many commodities. Nickel was highly valued for use in armor plating, and Congress ordered the removal of this metal from the five-cent piece, effective October 8, 1942. From that date, and lasting through the end of 1945, five-cent pieces bore the regular design but were minted from an alloy of copper, silver and manganese. It was anticipated that these emergency coins would be withdrawn from circulation after the war, so a prominent distinguishing feature was added. Coins from all three mints bore very large mintmarks above the dome of Monticello, and the letter 'P' was used as a mintmark for the first time on a U. S. coin.

The "Year" column lists the year and mint mark on the coin -- D is for Denver, S is for San Francisco, and P is for Philadelphia. A coin without a mint mark means it was also minted in Philadelphia. The "Mintage" column is the number of coins struck and released by the U.S. Mint. The "Numismatic Value Range" column represents what people typically pay for that type of coin (usually a very wide price range depending on the condition).

1930 S Standing Liberty Quarter

1930 S Standing Liberty QuarterIts estimated the 1930 S Standing Liberty Quarter Value at a minimum of $8, one in perfect condition can be worth $250 or more.

1930 S Standing Liberty Quarter
 Type: Standing Liberty Quarter
Year: 1930
Mint Mark: S
Face Value: 0.25 USD
Total Produced: 5,632,000
 Silver Content: 90% Silver
Weight: .1808 oz.
Silver Melt: $3.55
1930 S Standing Liberty QuarterValue: As a rough estimate of this coins value you can assume this coin in poor condition will be valued at somewhere around $8, while one in "perfect" condition can bring $250.
This price does not reference any standard coin grading scale. So when we say poor, we mean worn more than would be expected from a coin in this age, and perfect meaning it looks "perfect" without flaw and possibly even certified.

1930 S Standing Liberty Quarter Additional Info: Just 15% of all the quarters minted in 1930 were minted at the San Francisco mint. despite this fact the S coins are not selling for any more than the P coins for the year. 1928 was the last year that the Standing Liberty Quarter was minted. It was replaced by the Washington Quarter in 1932, and there were no quarters minted in 1931 due to the Great Depression.

 Numismatic vs Intrinsic Value: This coin in poor condition is still worth $4.45 more than the intrinsic value from silver content of $3.55, this coin is thus more valuable to a collector than to a silver bug. Coins worth more to a collectors may be a better long term investment. If the metal prices drop you will still have a coin that a numismatic would want to buy.

1930 S Standing Liberty Quarter Current silver melt value* for a 1930 S is $3.55 and this price is based off the current silver spot price of $19.61

What is BU Coin

BU coin BU coin is a coin that has never been circulated, and retains all of its original mint luster. BU stands for Brilliant Uncirculated. This term is used less frequently now that the Sheldon scale of numerical grading has come into vogue. A BU coin is usually described as MS (Mint State) today, and generally falls into the lowest MS grades (MS-60 through MS-62.) Higher MS grades are designated as "Choice BU" (MS-63 and MS-64) and "Gem BU" (MS-65 plus). Also Known As: Mint State (MS) Alternate Spellings: B.U.
