My 1833 penny shows wreath with V in center not one cent What does that mean?

Because the date isn't 1833 and it's not a penny. My guess is that the coin is the size and color of a nickel and the date is very worn. If so, what you really have is an 1883 five-cent piece.What is it's value and it is mint and you are correct?


Penny made in 1901 with a womens picture with stars going from the bottom around the rim of the penny up on the front and on the back an a surrounded in a reef type thing what is it?

To clear up confusion:It's a nickel, not a penny. Remember what "V" means in Roman numerals? That's also why the word on the back is plural - CENTS, not CENTWOMAN'S, not "womens" - and in any case it's Miss LibertyFinally, there's no "reef" (terrain in the ocean), but there is a WREATH on the back.Bottom line, you have a Liberty nickel. See the Related Question for specific prices.


What is the value of an 1883 us victory dime?

There's no US dime called a "Victory" dime. All 1883 US dimes carry a portrait of Miss Liberty on the front and the words ONE DIME on the back. They're called Seated Liberty dimes because of the portrait. You may be confusing the coin with an 1883 Liberty Head coin that has the letter V on the back. The reason that coin is the size of a nickel is that it IS a nickel, and the letter V is the Roman numeral for 5, not an abbreviation for Victory.
