About this product
Product Information
<h2>Ron Guth</h2><p>In 1883, mint officials changed the design on the Five-Cents denomination. A head of Liberty wearing a coronet replaced the old Shield design. On the reverse, a wreath repalced the stars and a large Roman numeral "V" replaced the old Arabic numeral 5. Another, seemingly inconsequential change created all sorts of problems when the new coins came out -- the motto "E Pluribus Unum" took the place of the word "CENTS." Taking advantage of this omission, enterprising individuals plated the new nickels with gold, then passed them off as new Five Dollar gold pieces. Enough people were fooled that mint officials recognized the problem and fixed it by restoring the word CENTS to its usual place at the bottom of the coin and moved the motto to above the wreath on the reverse. This change occurred in 1883, creating two major varieties for the year.</p><p>The so-called "No CENTS" variety is common in all; grades including Mint State. Literally thousands of MS-63, MS-64, and MS-65 examples have been certified by PCGS. Even MS-66 examples are common. In MS-67, the population drops off a cliff, with PCGS reporting only 16 examples (as of September 2011), with none finer.</p>

- 1***1 (484)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseItem as advertised and delivered promptly. The item was doubled boxed with padding which was necessary because the USPS gave the box(s) a very rough handling. The content arrived intact no thanks to the USPS.
- 0***b (3)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchase*BUYER BEWARE: Seller advertises USPS ground advantage for shipping then ships using a EBAY STANDARD ENVELOPE* I did receive the coins but when asked about shipping and the tracking never becoming active all I get told is that the post office has it so they can't answer questions about tracking and that USPS is $5 extra even though their listing states otherwise. COMMUNICATION AND SHIPPING are problem areas. The coins came in exactly as advertised and under spot price but i will not buy again.
