1867 Shield Nickel (No Rays) Cull
The 1867 Shield Nickel (No Rays) is a U.S. five-cent coin featuring a shield design on the obverse and lacking the decorative rays seen on earlier 1866 issues. "Cull" refers to coins in poor condition, often heavily worn or damaged, making them primarily of interest to budget-conscious collectors or for bullion value. Despite its condition, it remains a historical piece from the early years of the nickel series.
