1912 5c

Coin / United States of America / 1912 / Philadelphia / V-Nickels / 5c

The 1912 is the final year for the ever so popular Liberty Nickel Series. Just the finest of gems are scarce and valuable at all. A common yet desirable coin overall. It would take much searching to find one with a crisp strike, as most of the reverse for this issue are very weak.
