INFAMOUS 1883 RACKETEER NICKEL! Genuine 1883 Liberty Head "No Cents" Nickel gold-plated by unscrupulous individuals to resemble a $5 gold coin, leveraging the U.S. Mint's error of omitting the word "CENTS." This historical artifact features Lady Liberty on the obverse and a large Roman numeral 'V' on the reverse, with visible gold plating. A rare and collectible piece that tells a legendary tale of 19th-century American coin fraud.
