1912-D Liberty Head V Nickel Good+
In 1912, the Denver Mint achieved a major milestone by striking its very first five-cent pieces. This specific issue, designed by Charles Barber, represents a key moment in United States coinage as production of the base-metal nickel expanded beyond the main mint in Philadelphia. The obverse of this coin features a classic profile of Liberty wearing a crown. On the reverse, the central design element is a large Roman numeral V, representing the five-cent denomination. Surrounding this central numeral are the traditional legends and the motto E Pluribus Unum. Struck in a non-precious metal alloy, this coin carries the D mint mark of the Denver facility, marking its place in numismatic history.
