Best Answer

This coin is a Liberty Head Nickel (V means 5 cents - remember Roman numerals?) and 1888 is a somewhat scarce date.

The grade rules the price. Numismedia lists the following approximate retail values as of 02/2010:

Very worn condition - $26

Moderately worn - $60

Slightly worn - $112

Almost no wear - $210

Uncirculated - $270 to $2,660 depending on quality
