1885 Liberty Nickel (5c)

The 1885 Liberty Head nickel is a renowned key date with a modest mintage of just 1,472,700 pieces. This particular year is notably scarce, especially in higher grades, due to the limited quantity produced and the extensive circulation these coins experienced.

This coin, graded VG10 by NGC with CAC certification, presents solid details despite its significant wear. The legends and date remain clear, while the obverse and reverse devices retain much of their original design elements. The surfaces exhibit a consistent, original light-gray patina, free from any major distractions, offering a respectable level of eye appeal for the grade.
