Return to Monticello Jefferson Nickels feature Thomas Jefferson based on an 1800 study by Rembrandt Peale, and includes "Liberty" in Jefferson's script. U.S. Mint proof coins feature sharp relief and a mirror-like background. Their frosted, sculpted foregrounds give them a special cameo effect. Proof blanks are specially treated, polished and cleaned to ensure high-quality strikes. The blanks are then fed into presses fitted with specially polished dies and struck at least twice to ensure sharp relief.
