1883 Liberty Head Nickel, No Cents Object # 108 ANA 2023.4.47

Introduced on January 30, 1883, the Liberty Head nickel replaced the Shield nickel as America’s circulating five-cent coin. Designed by Charles E. Barber, the new coin featured a Roman numeral “V” on the reverse – but notably omitted the word “cents.” That omission quickly caused trouble: opportunists gold-plated the coins, sometimes even adding reeded edges for better accuracy, and passed them as $5 gold pieces, nicknamed “Racketeer Nickels.” Later that same year, the design was revised to add the word CENTS.

Composed of 25% nickel, the nickel coin paved the way for the metal’s growing industrial importance. First used to replace the silver half disme, nickel would later become a defining component of modern American coinage, eventually replacing silver in circulating coins entirely.

💬 If a coin’s design can make fraud easier, where does responsibility lie – with counterfeiters or with the people who designed the coin?

Follow along each week day as we spotlight one American coin, token, or note for every year of our nation’s independence.🪙 🇺🇸
