Its face value is 5 cents, but the melt value of a 1955-1981 Canadian nickel is $0.09 so the melt value is 4 cents more than the face value of the coin5 cents. It's not rare, and many are still in circulation.

Please don't assume that every older coin must be made of silver. Until they were recently changed to plated steel, Canadian nickels were minted in 99.9% nickel metal. If you think about it for a few seconds, like their American counterparts Canadian nickels are larger than dimes. If the coin had been made of silver it would have had a face value of 5 cents but be worth more than 10 cents (!?)
A dime is smaller than a nickel. A nickel is worth less than a dime. A dime has a ridged side, while a nickel is smooth and thicker.
