If you mean a 1870 Shield nickel, the coin is a better date of the series. For an accurate assessment of value the coin needs to be seen and graded. Assuming the coin is circulated, most show heavy wear. In general retail values for low grade coins are $21.00-$40.00, better grade are $52.00-$74.00 and coins showing almost no wear run from $100.00-$150.00. Values are a market average and only for coins in collectible condition, coins that are bent, corroded, scratched, used as jewelery or have been cleaned have far less value if any to a collector or dealer.
