      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: The 1901 Nickel boasts a very high mintage of over 26.4 million coins struck. It is very common from circulated grades up to and including MS65, leaving just the finest of gems with any scarcity at all. An ideal type coin because quality, lustrous eye appeal is not hard to come by but some weakness in the denticles is common.
