Description
The 1883 Shield Nickel, often referred to simply as the 1883 Shield 5-Cent coin, is a notable piece in numismatic circles. This particular coin is a part of the series of Shield Nickels that were produced by the United States Mint between the years 1866 and 1883. The design of the coin, which features a shield on its obverse side, was created by James B. Longacre, who was the Chief Engraver of the United States Mint at the time. The 1883 issue marks the final year of production for this specific design before the transition to the Liberty Head Nickel. Collectors often seek out the 1883 Shield Nickel due to its historical significance as the closing chapter of this series. Its composition consists of 75% copper and 25% nickel, giving it a distinct appearance and durability. While not as widely recognized as some other coins from that era, the 1883 Shield Nickel remains a cherished item among numismatists who appreciate its unique place in American coinage history.
