What is the value of an 1883 us victory dime?

There's no US dime called a "Victory" dime. All 1883 US dimes carry a portrait of Miss Liberty on the front and the words ONE DIME on the back. They're called Seated Liberty dimes because of the portrait. You may be confusing the coin with an 1883 Liberty Head coin that has the letter V on the back. The reason that coin is the size of a nickel is that it IS a nickel, and the letter V is the Roman numeral for 5, not an abbreviation for Victory.
