The 1875 Nickel Three Cents coin, also known as the "Three Cent Nickel," is a notable piece of U.S. numismatic history. It was minted during a period when the United States sought to facilitate commerce with small denomination coins, particularly due to the prevalence of fractional currency. The Nickel Three Cents coin is composed of nickel and copper, featuring a distinctive design that showcases a shield on the obverse and the denomination on the reverse. The mintage for this year was relatively low, making it desirable among collectors. The coin is part of a broader series that was produced from 1865 to 1889.
