There's never been a wheat-back nickel. All 1988 Jefferson nickels have the familiar picture of his home, Monticello.Wheat-back cents were minted from 1909 to 1958.
That would be the Liberty nickel, minted from 1883 through 1912. V is Roman for 5.
No. All nickels minted after mid-1938 are Jefferson nickels. You most likely have a 1937 nickel; the 3 can resemble a 5 if worn.
Buffalo or Indian Head nickels were minted in the US from 1913 to 1938.
Indian Head Nickels (with a buffalo on the back) were only minted from 1913 to 1938, so I have to assume you have something else -- perhaps a Liberty Head Nickel (with a big "V" on the back)? A well-worn 1891 Liberty Head Nickel is worth about $3.00

Unless it's an uncirculated or proof coin, it's worth 5¢. The "ship" is actually a keelboat. The coin is a 2004 Jefferson Nickel from the Westward Journey of Lewis and Clark series, and hundreds of millions were minted.
I have no idea what this coin could be. Can you email a photo? allhatnohorse@yahoo.com
