1877 - Coins

The 1877 Shield Nickel is a notable type of five-cent coin from the United States, part of the series introduced in 1866. It features a distinctive shield design on the obverse and a detailed depiction of the numeral "5" surrounded by a wreath on the reverse. The Shield Nickel is recognized for its historical significance and for being the first five-cent piece struck in nickel, as the U.S. transitioned from silver and copper compositions. The scarcity of the 1877 date adds to its appeal among collectors.
