Interesting fact
The Pattern 5 Cents "1882 Liberty Nickel without cents" (Pattern) 1882 from United States is a rare and unique coin that was never circulated. It was created as a pattern coin, which means it was produced as a prototype or sample for a potential coin design, but it was ultimately not adopted for circulation. This coin features a design similar to the Liberty Nickel, which was a widely used coin in the late 19th century, but it lacks the word "cents" on the reverse side. This omission makes it stand out from other coins of the time and adds to its rarity and value.
