The Liberty Head nickel, also known as the "V" nickel, was minted in the United States from 1883 to 1913. The specific design of the Liberty Head featured a profile of Lady Liberty on the obverse and a large "V" representing the denomination of five cents on the reverse. The 1883 Liberty Head nickel is notable as it was produced during the early years of the series and is often sought after by collectors. Additionally, some versions of the 1883 nickel were struck without the "CENTS" inscription, leading to confusion and subsequent counterfeiting as some were mistaken for larger denominations.
