Minting began in 1938 for this coin. The metal content has been the same for these coins except from 1942 - 1945 when they were made with a 35% silver content. Buffalo Nickels appeared before Jefferson Nickels. Before that the coin had a portrait of Miss Liberty, and prior to that an American ceremonial shield.
