Lot Description

<strong>Obv:</strong> Head of Liberty facing left, with the word LIBERTY at the border above and the date 1883 below. There are 13 stars at the border, arranged six left and seven right. The Liberty portrait is similar to that adopted for regular issue Liberty Head nickel production this year. <strong>Rev:</strong> The type used to coin regular issue 1883 Liberty Head nickels of the No CENTS design type. As described by the <em>uspatterns.com</em> website:<p><em>This is one of the more popular patterns of this year. Many collectors believe this design is superior to the regular production 1883 design.</em><p>And it is represented here by a pretty near-Gem Proof with delicate champagne-pink and powder blue iridescence on frosty to semi-reflective surfaces.
