In general, a US nickel has to be minted in 1945 or earlier to have any extra value but there are a lot of exceptions. The most important dates to know are:
- 1950-D nickels are moderately scarce and worth several dollars in average condition.
- "War nickels" 1942-1945 with a large mint mark over Monticello are worth at least $1 because they contain a small amount of silver.
- Common-date buffalo nickels are worth at least $1 but that can go up for coins in better condition.
- Older-date buffalo nickels can be worth a couple of dollars or more
- Common-date Liberty nickels are worth at least $3; older ones can be (but not necessarily are) worth more.
- All shield nickels are worth significant premiums.

Most nickels, especially those in circulation, are not worth much above their face value. However, certain older nickels, such as the 1942-1945 "War Nickel" that contains 35% silver, can have some numismatic value. Additionally, any nickel dated before 1938 may be valuable due to its scarcity and collector demand.
