1910 Liberty Head "V" Nickel Proof. PCGS PR66 (CAC Green Sticker). I bought this stunner on Thursday for $890 -- a toning premium of just $15 over the PCGS price guide. You could have knocked me over with a feather! Colorfully Toned Liberty Nickels are extremely rare. I have only seen a few in my life and this is one of the prettiest I've ever seen. Note that this photo was taken for PCGS CoinFacts by Phil Arnold himself (of PCGS TrueView fame). This photo does show up on the PCGS Cert Verification page but doesn't have a TrueView database entry -- though the differences between a CoinFacts photo and a TrueView photo are negligible. I put a CoinFacts notation on the image to differentiate this from an official TrueView. I used the master 2200x1100 pixel CoinFacts image, resized it in Photoshop, and saved it using a high quality (90%) compression option in order to maintain the fantastic detail of the master photo. I have to say, I love the "Fire & Ice" look of this one.

Since you're interested in the "most colorful" Liberty Head nickel, check out the archives for Dick Abrahams and Jhon E. Cash where there are some Liberty Head nickels with great toning. Take a look to compare for the most color.
