The first year of the V Nickels in which this issue had the word CENTS replaced by the phrase E PLURIBUS UNUM. This change became a danger to potential alterations (gold plated to look like a Half Eagle) thus ending the design in well under a year. This issue of the Liberty Nickel is common from the poorest of grades up to the gem level, leaving just the finest of gems with any scarcity at all.
Obverse Description
Lady Liberty with the word LIBERTY on her crown faces left with 13 stars around the periphery and the date positioned at the bottom center.
Reverse Description
Large V (roman numeral 5) is centered in the design surrounded by an ornate wreath with UNITED STATES OF AMERICA and E PLURIBUS UNUM around the periphery.
