    Help these old tired eyes. Here is an old V Nickel that appears to be close to a most valuable 1885 date. I keep looking at it until my eyes water, and I see 1885 & 1895. What do you think ? Is it one of those dates or something else ?

    I see 1895 and no "dent" on the right of the "9".

    I know, I know, but I have never seen a bottom curl on a nine loop into the middle like this, giving it closure. Would anyone have an 1885 or 1895 V nickel for a comparison ?
