Look on the back of the coin to see if there's a small mint mark letter below the words FIVE CENTS. It may be blank or there may be a D or S. (The F on the front of the coin is the designer's monogram and not a mint mark.)

Numismedia lists the following approximate retail values as of 11/2010:

No mint mark (Philadelphia):

Very worn condition - $2

Moderately worn - $6

Slightly worn - $8

Almost no wear - $30

Uncirculated - $59 to $9,650 depending on quality

"D" mint mark (Denver):

Very worn - $8

Moderately worn - $33

Slightly worn - $126

Almost no wear - $338

Uncirculated - $540 to $5,880

"S" mint mark (San Francisco):

Very worn - $4

Moderately worn - $26

Slightly worn - $91

Almost no wear - $300

Uncirculated - $480 to $24,050

DISCLAIMER: The retail values quoted are the best available, but may vary due to market fluctuations. Also the wholesale (buying) price of a coin will be less than the selling (retail) price. A reputable coin dealer will be able to give a more accurate valuation based on inspection of the coin.
