About Liberty Nickels
Business Strikes and Proofs

What may be perhaps the least collected type of five cent pieces, the Liberty Head Nickel holds the odd distinction of the second longest running design, second only to the Jefferson Nickel. This follow-up to the Shield Nickel and precursor for the Buffalo Nickel enjoyed three decades’ worth of production and several more in circulation.

The history of the type dates back to the Civil War when the contemporary coin shortage persuaded Congress to answer the calls of a wealthy businessman, Joseph Wharton, who wanted to sell his mined nickel to the United States Government. In this direction, the Mint facility in Philadelphia began striking both three cent and five cent coins which circulated in earnest. However, the hardness of the metal led to premature die breaks and die retirements, forcing the Mint to create more dies than was needed for other denominations. The Mint’s request to change course and revert back to silver half dime production was met with the abolishment of the tiny silver coin altogether in 1873, in part to satisfy the interests of Mr. Wharton.
