All coins start out as uncirculated. When released and used is when the wear starts.
The only US nickels to contain silver are those minted during WWII. A 1959 nickel in uncirculated condition might go for 25 cents.
Unless it is uncirculated, it's pocket change.
Still only 5 cents.
A 1957 nickel is worth face value only, unless it's uncirculated or a proof coin.
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.
The diameter of a US nickel is 0.835 inches.
The first US (five cent) nickel was struck in 1866 and is worth about $15-20 in worn condition and up to $150+ if in perfect uncirculated condition.
It's not silver, but it should be worth from about a dollar in Good condition and up to $70 if uncirculated.
In circulated condition, it has no added value. A nice uncirculated one is worth maybe 25 cents.
