1895 Liberty Head V Nickel Good
The 1895 Liberty Head V Nickel represents a classic era of United States minor coinage. Struck in Philadelphia, this five cent piece carries a design conceived by Charles Barber, showcasing a left-facing portrait of Liberty on the obverse. She is depicted wearing a coronet, or crown, which is inscribed with the word Liberty, surrounded by stars representing the young nation. On the reverse, the coin features a large Roman numeral V, denoting its five-cent value. This central digit is encircled by a decorative wreath, which is itself encompassed by the national motto, E Pluribus Unum, and the words United States of America. This particular specimen survives in Good condition, showing the honest wear of a coin that actively circulated through the commerce of late nineteenth-century America.
