1911 Liberty Head V Nickel Copper-Nickel Coin
1911 Liberty Head V Nickel US Mint Five Cent Copper-Nickel Coin
This 1911 Liberty Head V Nickel is a classic piece of American numismatic history, struck by the United States Mint during the penultimate year of the series. The obverse features the left-facing profile of Lady Liberty surrounded by 13 stars, while the reverse displays the iconic large Roman numeral V within a corn and wheat wreath. This coin is composed of 75% copper and 25% nickel. It shows honest wear consistent with its age, with visible date and major design elements. As a circulated copper-nickel issue from the early 20th century, it represents the standard currency used during the pre-World War I era and is a staple for any collector completing a set of vintage United States nickels.
1911 Liberty Head V Nickel US Five Cent Coin
Condition: The coin appears to be in circulated condition with significant honest wear across both the obverse and reverse surfaces. Liberty's hair details and the laurel wreath on the reverse show smoothing, and the word LIBERTY in the coronet is likely worn away or illegible. The date and major design elements remain visible. The mint is Philadelphia, as it lacks a mint mark. The metal content is copper-nickel, consisting of 75% copper and 25% nickel. Historically, the Liberty Head nickel, designed by Charles E. Barber, was a staple of American commerce from 1883 until it was replaced by the Buffalo nickel in 1913. This is a business strike type coin intended for general circulation. A specific numeric grade is not known, but it visually falls within the Good to Very Good range.
