The 1892 V Nickel, also known as the Liberty Head Nickel, is a five-cent coin minted in the United States. Produced by the Philadelphia Mint, it features a portrait of Liberty on the obverse and a large "V" for five on the reverse, which stands for the numeral value of the coin. This coin is notable for its distinctive design and is part of a series that was minted from 1883 to 1912. The 1892 issue marks the inaugural year of the V Nickel series and is sought after by collectors due to its historical significance and relatively low mintage compared to later years.
