Authentic 1870 United States Shield Nickel featuring the classic shield design on the obverse and a large numeral 5 surrounded by 13 stars on the reverse. This copper-nickel coin displays significant circulation wear and heavy toning/patina, characteristic of a piece that has seen extensive history. The date 1870 is clearly visible at the bottom of the obverse, and the "In God We Trust" motto remains legible along the top rim. A rugged, historical specimen for collectors of early American coinage.
