Interesting fact
The Pattern 5 Cents "1882 Liberty Nickel" (Pattern) 1882 from United States is a rare and unique coin that was never officially released into circulation. It was created as a pattern coin, meaning it was produced as a prototype or sample for a potential new design, but it was ultimately rejected by the U.S. Mint. As a result, only a small number of these coins were produced, making them highly sought after by collectors.
