1895 Liberty Head V Nickel XF
The five-cent piece minted in 1895 represents a classic era of United States coinage. Strikingly designed without any precious metal, this base metal coin showcases the artistry of Charles Barber. The obverse features a dignified profile of Liberty, who wears a crown inscribed with her name, framed by stars and the year 1895. On the reverse side, the design centers around a prominent Roman numeral V, representing the five-cent denomination. This central symbol is encircled by a decorative wreath, which is in turn surrounded by the national motto, E PLURIBUS UNUM, and the country name, UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. This specific piece survives in Extra Fine condition, preserving the crisp details of its late nineteenth-century engraving.
