Collectible coins often encompass a variety of types based on their historical significance, composition, or design features. The United States nickel, specifically the five-cent piece, includes types such as the Shield Nickel, issued from 1866 to 1883. The 1867 Shield Nickel is notable for its distinctive design, which features a shield on the obverse and a value of five cents on the reverse. The half dime, another type of collectible coin, was minted before the nickel and represents an important transitional phase in U.S. coinage history. Collectors often seek these coins for their rarity, condition, and the historical context they represent.
