Philadelphia struck 661,636,000 Jefferson nickels in 1990, beginning the 1990s Jefferson production at substantial levels. The coin is common in all grades and readily available in Mint State. Strike characteristics are strong, and Full Steps examples exist in adequate numbers for specialist demand at modest premiums.
1990 was the year of the Iraqi invasion of Kuwait in August, which would lead to the Gulf War in early 1991. German reunification occurred in October. The Jefferson nickels struck that year circulated through a pivotal moment as the Cold War era ended and new international challenges emerged.
