I was looking around for Black and White Cameo and found this Jefferson reverse. At first I thought "that was nice", and after I closed the image I did a double take on where the old mint mark used to be on 1964 and before Jefferson's. The designers initials (FS) were there. Was this one of the original designs and they took the initials off like the V.D.B.? Or just a fantasy piece?

That's the return to Monticello reverse that started after the Westward Journey nickels were finished. The reverse has been slightly modified to bring out more detail. The mint added Felix Schlag's initials to the reverse.

Yepper, that's what the back of the proof nickels look like beginning 2006 with FS on the reverse.

(pulling out a 2007 from pocket) Sure enough! I never though to look at a more modern version. Just goes to show ya; change happens!

The above picture threw me off since the article was talking about 1950 coinage.
