Best Answer

By convention, the front (known as the obverse) of all Canadian coins have an image of HRH Queen Elizabeth II.

The current 5c coin has an image of a beaver on the reverse. This could (mistakenly) be thought of as the 'front' - it's not.

What is the value of a us victory nickel?

There was no "victory nickel" struck in the US. There was, however a Canadian Victory Nickel, and there were US nickels struck with 35% silver (from 1942-1945 with a large mintmark on the reverse above the Monticello) and those are worth $1.50 or so.MoreIf your nickel is a US coin dated 1883 to 1912 with a picture of Miss Liberty on the front, please look up the Roman numeral for "five". It's the letter V, and is the coin's denomination.

Is a 1971 Canadian dime silver?

The coins themselves aren't magnetic, but Canadian dimes made since mid-1968 are attracted to a magnet.Up till that year the coins were made of an alloy of copper and silver, neither of which is attracted to a magnet. The rising price of silver forced the Royal Canadian Mint to reduce the amount of silver from 80% to 50%, then eliminate it completely in favour of pure nickel. By the turn of the century the price of nickel had also increased to the point where the RCM switched to plated steel. Both of those metals are strongly attracted to magnets.
