Another New U.S. Nickel

I'm not usually a coin geek, but I'm loving the new Westward Journey designs of the U.S. nickel. Jefferson's head now "bleeds" off the five-cent piece and a couple weeks ago I noticed also a buffalo design on the tails side. But today, what a treat. I was digging in my coin purse for change to get a pack of gum and found another new design, inspired by Lewis and Clark, again on the tails side of the 2005 U.S. nickel:

Neat, huh?
