If you're comparing the coin to an American nickel, it's important to know what "upside down" means. US Coins are minted with the back side rotated 180 degrees versus the front, while Canadian Coins have both sides oriented the same direction. That is, if you flip the two coins side to side as if you were turning the page of a book, the back side of a US coin will be point in the opposite direction while the back side of a Canadian coin will point in the same direction.
If the two sides of a 1979 Canadian nickel are pointing the same way, it's only worth 5 cents. If they're pointing in opposite directions (like a US coin) you could have what's called a rotated-die error. In that case the nickel should be inspected in person by a dealer who works with error coins.
