1883 (w/ Cents) Liberty Head Nickel - AVERAGE CIRCULATED

The 1883 (w/ Cents) Liberty Head Nickel was originally issued without the word "CENTS" on the reverse. Opportunists gold-plated the coins and passed them off as $5 gold pieces, now called "Racketeer Nickels." The word "CENTS" was later added to eliminate this problem. This coin is in AVERAGE CIRCULATED condition, making it the most popular choice for the average collector.

Product Features:

• The obverse features Liberty wearing a coronet.
• The reverse depicts the roman numeral V for 5, along with a wreath.
• AVERAGE CIRCULATED condition, meaning that the coin may have significant wear, but is otherwise free of major problems or damage. View our Grading Policy for more information on how we grade our coins.
• A desirable option for most collectors.
