The V Nickel, also known as the Liberty Head Nickel, was minted in the United States from 1883 to 1912. The 1894 V Nickel, in particular, is notable among collectors due to its low mintage and high demand, especially in well-preserved conditions. Featuring a design by Charles E. Barber, the obverse showcases a young Liberty, and the reverse displays a Roman numeral "V" denoting its five-cent denomination. This coin is considered a key date in the series, with fewer than 100 known examples, making it highly sought after by numismatists.
