      Composition: 75% copper; 25% nickel
      Mintage: 5,410,500
      Strike Type: Business
      Coinage Type: Liberty head nickel
      Coinage Years: 1883-1912

      Weight (Grams): 5
      Designer: Charles E. Barber
      Edge: Plain
      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 * CENTS * around the periphery. The motto E PLURIBUS UNUM appears near the top between the wreath and letters STATES OF AME.
      General Notes: This date sees a drop in mintage from recent predecessors down to just over 5 million. Scarcer because of this fact with high grade gems being a true challenge to find. Beware of striking issues as the 1894 flat reverse devices are commonly seen.
