Description
1899 Liberty Head V- Nickel in Good to Fair condition, visible wear see photos. The 1899 Liberty Head V-Nickel stands out as a historic milestone for the series, marking a significant economic turning point at the close of the 19th century. Struck exclusively at the Philadelphia Mint, designed by Chief Engraver Charles E. Barber, the coin features the classic left-facing Liberty portrait on the obverse and the definitive "With CENTS" wreath configuration on the reverse surrounding the iconic Roman numeral "V". Because it was produced in such vast quantities to satisfy expanding turn-of-the-century commerce, the 1899 issue remains a fine coin for modern collectors in circulated grades, while well-struck, lustrous Mint State examples remain actively sought after to anchor historic type sets.
