The first nickels were struck in 1866 so you cannot have one dated 1863.
If you have a tiny coin with the words HALF DIME on the back it was the predecessor to the nickel; in today's market 1863 is a relatively scarce date with values ranging from $125 to $375 depending on wear.
If you have any other coin it's either foreign, a different date or denomination, or a fake. Please post a new question with a description of the images and wording on your coin so that it can be ID'ed.
Posted 3-7-11. I have a silver colored coin about the size of a present dime that has the number 5 and word cents circled by star like figures with the words "The United States of America" on the outer edge. The other side has an ornate figure resembling a harp with the words along the outer edge "In God We Trust" and the date 1863 stamped on it. What is it worth??
The 1863 Indian Head cent is still the copper-nickel composition (.880 copper & .120 nickel) 1864 is the year they were first struck in bronze.
