Answer 2

This is what I found, so, not rare and been incirculation since 2004;

In late 2004 a second Jefferson nickel was released. It features a design of the boat that Lewis and Clark used on their expedition. Captains Lewis and Clark can be seen in full uniform in the bow of the keelboat. Built to the specifications of Captain Lewis, the keel boat could be moved using sails, poles, oars, or pulling from the river bank. This five cent design was created by United States Mint sculptor Al Maletsky.

Answer 3

Yes this is the only year it will be released, but no it is not rare. There will be a lot of them. It will be no more rare than any of the four state quarters released this year.
