    Well, it seems to me that a name change is in order.

    The Montacello nickel is pretty good. Consider that the original Lincoln cent is often referred to as the wheat cent since the reverse was redesigned.

    They will still have Jefferson on the obverse just as they always have. So sure ,its still a Jefferson nickel.

    People will just refer to them as commemorative nickels. I mean, what other commemorative nickels are there anyway.

    Still a Jefferson

    Lincoln cents are either Wheats or Memorials

    Same thing for the bicentenial coinage
