Best Answer

There were 2 different types of nickels made in 1883.

If your coin has a shield on the front it's called a Shield Nickel (for obvious reasons).

If it has a picture of Miss Liberty and a large Roman numeral V on the back it's called a Liberty nickel.

The value depends ENTIRELY on its condition.
