1883 Liberty V Nickel 5C No "CENTS" PCGS AU 55

Bullion Exchanges is excited to offer the 1883 Liberty V Nickel 5C No "CENTS" PCGS AU 55. This coin is a significant piece of American numismatic history, representing the first year of the Liberty Nickel series and known for its unique "No Cents" design, which was later modified.

The Liberty V Nickel series began in 1883 and ran until 1912. The first coins released in 1883, including the "No CENTS" variety, were initially met with confusion and controversy, as the absence of the word "CENTS" led to some fraudulent activities where these nickels were gold-plated to pass as $5 gold pieces. This led to a redesign later in the year to include the word "CENTS." The "No CENTS" version is particularly notable for this historical context and is a prized collectible.
