Yes. In 1904 and 1905 A Lewis and Clark Exposition Gold Dollar was minted in Philadelphia to be sold at the Lewis and Clark Centennial Exposition of 1905. In 2004, a Lewis And Clark Silver Commemorative Dollar was minted to commemorate the 200th anniversary of the Lewis and Clark expedition.
The US first minted nickels in 1866.You may have a 2004 nickel minted to commemorate the Lewis and Clark expedition. It carries the date 1803 on the back to indicate the year that the expedition began.
Any US nickel minted since the 1960s is pretty much only worth face value. Even the 2004-2005 Lewis and Clark Bicentennial nickels were minted in such large numbers that any you find in change have no added value.
The US minted four different nickels to honor the Lewis and Clark expedition's bicentennial during 2004-2005. In circulated condition, none are worth more than face value.
There were 372,000,000 2004-D and 361,440,000 2004-P Peace Medal nickels minted. There were also 344,880,000 2004-D and 366,720,000 2004-P keelboat design nickels minted.
Uh, please give the coin another look. All 1985 nickels carry the familiar Jefferson portrait used until 2004. Lewis and Clark Bicentennial nickels were minted in 2004 and 2005. In any case, none of those 3 dates is rare.

There aren't any "Lois and Clark" nickels - Lois and Clark was a TV show about Lois Lane and Clark Kent (a/k/a Superman).Lewis and Clark nickels were minted in 2004 and 2005 to honor the bicentennial of the famous North American expedition led by Meriwether Lewis and William Clark. However they're not valuable; huge numbers were struck and almost all were saved as keepsakes, so any that you find in change are only worth 5 cents.

The U.S. didn't begin minting nickels until 1866. If the date 1803 is above an image of a handshake, then what you have is one of the Westward Journey nickels, commemoration 200 years since the Lewis and Clark expedition. It was minted in 2004 and is worth five cents.
It's right on the front: For nickels minted 1938 to 2004 it's at the 4:00 position near the rim. Nickels minted in 2005 have the date at the 5:00 position near the rim. Nickels minted since 2006 have the date below the word "Liberty" Many people are confused by the special commemorative nickels made to honor the Lewis and Clark Expedition. Some of these coins have the expeditions' starting date 1803 on the back, but that's clearly not the date the coins were minted.
Please check your coin again and post a new, separate question. The first US nickels were minted in 1866. Lewis and Clark commemorative nickels minted in 2004 carry the expedition date 1803 on the back side. If that's what you have it's only worth face value to a dime in circulated condition.
Mintage for the 2004 Louisiana Purchase/Peace Medal Reverse Nickels are, Denver: 372,000,000 Philadelphia: 361,440,00
It's not clear what's meant by "standard" nickels. The special Lewis and Clark commemorative nickels were only minted during 2004 and 2005, and a new design for Jefferson's portrait was adopted in 2006. Until the Mint authorizes another design change, the 2006 and later design is the new standard.
