The 1885 ring nickel
The ring nickel (separate varieties known as J-1724, J-1725, and J-1742[1]) was a United States pattern coin with a face value of five cents. It was struck in 1884 and 1885, even though the Liberty Head nickel had just been released in 1883.[2]
The 1884 pattern had an octagonal hole and was struck in nickel,[3] while the 1885 pattern had a round hole and was struck in silver.[4]
