[QUOTE="vnickels, post: 1065943, member: 25790"]The type 2 reverse has the word "Cents" written on the back. The word was first left off on the type 1 reverse. Joshua Tatum, a well known fraudster, gold plated the Type 1 rev nickels, and would walk away with $4.95 in change after buying a 5 cent item. The far more valuable one is the one without cents, even though that mintage is higher. The fact is, the Type 1's were saved. So they are common in Mint State and easily obtainable today. That year also has die cracks.[/QUOTE]
