1887 Liberty Head Nickel

The years of issue for the classic Liberty Head nickels series, 1883-1912, represent the heyday of America's 5¢ coins. For a single Liberty Head nickel, you could take a ride on a carousel, watch the latest movie at the nickelodeon theater, or buy a nickel beer at your favorite drinking establishment! Liberty Head nickels, also called "V nickels" for the large Roman numeral five on the reverse, are precious and sought-after collectibles from that earlier time in America.
