Please see the Related Link for an image and some history of the famous 1913 Liberty Head nickel.

All Liberty Head nickels have essentially the same design - a picture of Miss Liberty on the front, and the Roman numeral V (= 5) on the back. The only design change occurred part-way through 1883, the first year of issue. The original design omitted the Word CENTS, and crooks gold-plated the coins to pass them off as $5 gold pieces. These became famous as "racketeer nickels".
