# 726 - 21st Century Type Set - Part 7
A 21st-century type coin set consists of one coin bearing each design produced by the United States Mint during the 21st century. That is an enormous number of coins (commemoratives, state quarters, ATB quarters, Sacagawea dollars, etc) in both circulated/uncirculated and proof finishes. We must not forget the material of the coins like clad, silver, gold, copper, platinum, etc.

The NGC type coin registry takes the one type coin for the series approach. Therefore that is only one State Quarter, one America the Beautiful Quarter, one Sacagawea Dollar and one Presidential Dollar required. They only consider coins that were meant for circulation, so no commemoratives and no gold or platinum coins.

I decided to collect a  NGC-like 21st century type coin set but, looking always for perfection, my collection is made only by PR-70 coins.

Let's show it, in order of value and year of each coin.

The seventh is a PR-70 UC 2003-S Jefferson Nickel.

It was made of 75% copper 25% nickel and weights 5g.

The info below comes from https://jeffersonnickel.org/

"The Jefferson Nickel has been the longest running series for the five cent denomination. Featuring a portrait of Thomas Jefferson, the 3rd President of the United States, the design was introduced in 1938. This came after the introduction of the Lincoln Cent and Washington Quarter and represented the third series of American coinage to feature a former President on the obverse."

NGC graded 9,233 2003-S 5 cent Proofs, with 1,891 as PF-70 UC. 3,298,439 coins were minted in San Francisco in 2003.

I bought this coin in 2013 for $15.00 and today's price is around $30.00.

The original Jefferson Nickel was designed by Felix O. Schlag. A left-facing portrait of the former President is shown on the obverse.

The reverse features an image of Jefferson’s historic home known as Monticello.
