Please check your coin again. It can't be most of the things you mention because:
- The first US nickels were minted in 1866
- Thomas Jefferson is the only president to ever appear on the nickel (1938-present)
- The building named Monticello isn't a capitol building, it's an image of Jefferson's home in Virginia
Finally, ALL U.S. coins have the motto E Pluribus Unum on them so it doesn't help to ID a specific coin.
