The 1912-D is the final year for the ever so popular Liberty Nickel Series and the only one minted in Denver. Just the finest of gems are scarce and valuable at all. A common yet desirable coin because it has a mint mark. There are some nice gems out there with pretty toning and a strong strike.
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.
