Shield Nickels - Coins

Shield Nickels, produced by the United States Mint from 1866 to 1883, are notable for their distinctive design featuring a depiction of a shield on the obverse. These coins were the first to be made of a nickel-copper alloy, transitioning from the earlier silver and copper coins. The denomination of 5 cents was established to serve the needs of commerce during a time of change in U.S. currency. Shield Nickels are collected for their historical significance, variety of designs, and the different mint marks associated with various years of production.
