San Francisco struck 2,867,787 proof Jefferson nickels in 1991, continuing the high modern proof production levels of the early 1990s. The coin is common by proof standards and available in every grade through standard collector channels. Strike quality is typically sharp, with mirror fields and frosted devices characteristic of well-made modern proofs.
The 1991-S proof was distributed in the year's standard United States Mint Proof Set alongside the cent through dollar denominations. Cameo and Deep Cameo designations are essentially universal on modern proofs from this period.
For collectors building complete Jefferson nickel proof sets, the 1991-S is a routine early-1990s acquisition. The coin is among the most affordable modern Jefferson proofs in upper grade levels and is easily acquired through major auction houses or specialist dealers.
