      General Notes: The 1912 Proof V Nickel comes from a relatively lower mintage of just 2,145 coins struck. Even with such a low mintage this coin is quite affordable as most remain in existence. Pieces without a cameo are very common. The Cameo designation brings a premium in all grades, especially the finest of gems that are quite scarce. Deep Cameos are very rare.
