About this Product
 
The Ocean in View is the fourth nickel released in the United States Mint's Westward Journey Nickel Series. This nickel features the first views of what Lewis and Clark encountered, and led them to believe that they had reached their goal, the Pacific Ocean. The quote, "'O the Joy!" is quoted from what Captain Clark exclaimed as they arrived upon this location. Sadly, learning later that they were wrong. In fact what they did learn during this expedition and from the location was that the Missouri River was not part of a Northwest waterway passage across the continent and that there were two mountain ranges to cross instead of one.

This special collection is the opportunity for you to collect both of the GOLD and the PLATINUM versions of the Buffalo Westward Nickels, each from the Philadelphia and Denver Mints. Each in a separate lens, one for the Gold version and another for the Platinum. The coins are layered 7 times in gold and platinum respectively.
