Three-Cent Nickels were produced for white a few years, however the 1865 variety is especially valuable to collectors due to it being one of the first issues. Seeing as there is only a finite number of these coins still available, now is the best time to add one to your collection.

On the obverse side of the coin you will find in the center a raised depiction of Lady Liberty, facing leftward. Surrounding the image of Lady Liberty is a raised inscription which reads “United States of America.” The 1865 year of minting is also present on the obverse. It must be mentioned that both the reverse and obverse sides of the coin feature outer edges that are reeded.

The reverse side of the nickel is also quite simple, with a Roman numeral 3, marking the three-cent face value, in the center. Surrounding the face value is an ornate wreath, depicted in incredible detail.
