All coins start out as uncirculated. When released and used is when the wear starts.

Unless it is uncirculated, it's pocket change.
Still only 5 cents.

Current retail for an 1879 Shield nickel ranges from about $400 if very worn, up to $750 if almost uncirculated.
The 1943 -S cents are worth between 10 cents and 50 cents if they show normal wear. If they are uncirculated or in mint state condition then they can be worth from $10 to $50 depending upon the many factors which go into grading uncirculated coins.
1913-1938 are the years the us mint minted "buffalo" nickel's.. Only Jefferson nickels were minted in 1943. 1943 nickel is usually called a "War Nickel" (minted during war time w/ silver) Hope I didn't confuse the question...
These are ordinary circulation coins with no added value unless you have one in uncirculated or proof condition.
