It's a mint mark that tells where a coin was made.
S means it was minted in San Francisco
D means Denver
P or no mint mark means Philadelphia
However, your coin isn't a "Monticello Liberty" coin - it's a 5-cent piece issued during WWII, and made from a different metal. The design is the same as that used on regular nickels up till 2003 so it should look familiar, with the only change being to use a large mint mark to indicate the different alloy.

What is the value of a Monticello nickel with no date that is double struck?
If it is a Mint error it may be worth a few dollars, take it to a coin dealer to see if it has any value.MoreIt's called a Jefferson nickel rather than a Monticello nickel. If by "double struck" you mean that Monticello is on both sides (which would account for the lack of a date) what you have is a novelty item called a magician's coin.
