Collectible coins such as the Liberty Head Nickels, minted from 1883 to 1912, feature the iconic design by engraver Charles E. Barber. The 1883 Liberty Head Nickel, produced in Philadelphia, is particularly sought after by collectors due to its historical significance and rarity, especially in high-grade conditions. Initially, the coin was struck without a "CENTS" denomination, leading to a notable instance of miscoinage where it was used as a five-cent token, resulting in increased interest among numismatists. The series represents a pivotal period in American coinage, reflecting both design evolution and economic history.
