Denver struck 563,964,147 Jefferson nickels in 1976, another substantial Bicentennial-year production. The coin is common in all grades and readily available in Mint State. Strike characteristics are generally strong, and Full Steps examples exist in adequate numbers for specialist demand at modest premiums.
Collectors building complete Jefferson nickel sets acquire the 1976-D without difficulty. The coin is typical of Bicentennial-year Denver production at high output levels. The substantial mintage ensures abundant availability at all grade levels.
The 1976-D represents Denver Jefferson production during the Bicentennial celebration year. Unlike the quarters, halves, and dollars with their special Bicentennial designs, the nickel retained its normal Jefferson-Monticello design. Collectors building Bicentennial sets sometimes include a 1976 nickel as a contemporary companion piece to the special-design denominations of the year.
