A rare 1913 Liberty Head nickel fetched a lot of pocket change Wednesday night at a Philadelphia auction, selling for more than $4.5 million.
The Eliasberg 1913 Liberty Head nickel, one of only five ever produced, is now one of the five most valuable coins ever sold at auction and holds the title of “most valuable non-precious metal coin.”
Only two more of this particular coin are in private hands. The others are in museums, including the Smithsonian.
