1867 Shield Nickel – G4 Condition – Historic U.S. Coin

This 1867 Shield Nickel is a significant piece of American numismatic history. Struck during the post-Civil War era, the Shield Nickel was the first five-cent piece to be made of nickel, marking an important shift in U.S. coinage. This coin, minted in 1867, offers a glimpse into the early days of U.S. coin production in the late 19th century.

Key Features:

  • Date: 1867

  • Mint Mark: No mint mark (indicating it was struck at the Philadelphia Mint)

  • Design: The obverse features a shield with a ribbon that reads "E PLURIBUS UNUM," with the word "Liberty" at the top. The reverse showcases a large numeral “5” surrounded by a wreath, symbolizing the five-cent denomination.

  • Condition: Graded G4 (Good 4). In this condition, the coin shows considerable wear, with much of the detail worn smooth, but the key features such as the shield and the numeral “5” are still recognizable. The date and design elements are legible but slightly worn, making this a good entry-level coin for those interested in early U.S. nickel issues.

  • Material: 75% Copper, 25% Nickel

  • Diameter: 20.5 mm

  • Weight: 5 grams

  • Rarity: The 1867 Shield Nickel is an important coin in U.S. history, particularly for collectors of early nickel coins. While this example is in a lower grade, it is still a valuable piece for any collection of U.S. coins, especially those focusing on 19th-century nickel issues.

This 1867 Shield Nickel offers collectors the chance to own a historical coin from a pivotal time in U.S. coinage. Whether you are just starting a collection or adding to your existing set, this piece will make a great addition to any collection of early American coins.
