Best Answer

The mint mark on a 1939 Jefferson Nickel is located on the obverse (tails) side of the coin, just to the right of Monticello (the building) between the rim and the building. If there is no mark there then the coin was produced at the U.S. Mint facility in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

You need to first find the mintmark of your coin, on the reverse of you coin, under where it says "FIVE CENTS" there should be either nothing, a D or an S. Assuming your coin is in average circulated condition, if there is no mintmark your coin is worth around $2, if there is a D it could be worth around $8 and if there is an S your coin may be worth nearly $20. However, do not clean your coin cleaning coins will reduce the value of them to nearly nothing.
