These centless coins were coldplated and passed for five dollars. Later in that year the word CENTS was added. The designer was Charles E. Barber. V nickels were made from 1883 to 1913. The most valuable is a 1885 in EF40. V nickels weigh 5 grams and have a composition of an alloy of 75% copper and 25% nickel. Still looking for my first.
