It's more than likely due to a defect in the die that was used to strike the coin. Minor die errors are sought by a small number of collectors but don't have a lot of interest to the broader collecting population. You might be able to get 25 or 50 cents for it if you can find a "niche" group of die-break collectors.

Die errors have occurred frequently over the years. Some are more spectacular and command a premium, such as the 2005 buffalo nickel that appears to have a spear poking through the buffalo. Back in the 1950s a (relatively) large number of cents were struck with a die error that caused the word LIBERTY to look like "LIBIERTY"; these generated enough popular interest to have be sold for a buck or so.

Unfortunately, a 1996 nickel with a misspelled word "MontLcello" instead of "Monticello" is likely a result of a minting error. While minting errors can sometimes increase the value of a coin for collectors, the value varies depending on the specific error and demand from collectors. It would be best to have the coin authenticated by a professional in the numismatic field for a more accurate assessment of its value.
