This century mark Liberty Nickel is the highest mintage so far in the series with over 27.2 million coins struck. It is very common from circulated grades up to and including MS65, leaving just the finest of gems with any scarcity at all. Nice type coin as it is affordable. However, just be aware of striking issues as most are solid strikes but some reverses can be a bit weaker.
Obverse Description
Lady Liberty with the word LIBERTY on her crown faces left with 13 stars around the periphery and the date positioned at the bottom center.
Reverse Description
Large V (roman numeral 5) is centered in the design surrounded by an ornate wreath with UNITED STATES OF AMERICA * CENTS * around the periphery. The motto E PLURIBUS UNUM appears near the top between the wreath and letters STATES OF AME.
