    It’s dated 1883, the last year of issue. It’s not the 3/2 but it does have several die cracks on it.

    Sounds like my V Nickels, which is housed in a complete Whitman’s folder.

    Very nice. As the others have said, very well struck and well preserved. The few I have are well circulated type coins.

    Save up and buy a nice one. One is all it takes to see the detail in this coin.

    I have a v nickel Whitman folder (actually I have two folders) all I need is 1885, 1886, 1912-S. I have this v nickel with a lamination error that looks xf.
