This gorgeous 1898 better date Liberty "V" Nickel is thrillingly gorgeous and has outstanding originality and eye appeal. Other than one mark on Liberty's cheek this coin is relatively otherwise mark free. There are obviously noticeable hints of luster between the obverse stars and the reverse lettering. 1898 is a much tougher date than the immediate two years which surround it especially in this higher circulated grade of Xf-45.
