Unlike the dimes, quarters, and halves that carry designer Charles Barber's name in common parlance, his nickels are almost always called Liberty Head or V* nickels.
Without a date it's impossible to estimate a value. Please check your coin again; then look for questions in the form "What is the value of a <date> US nickel ?" for specific information.
(*) V of course is the Roman numeral representing 5, and not "Victory" or "Victoria" as some people assume.
The coin is NOT silver. Most circulated coins are valued at $1.00-$3.00. The 1901 Liberty Head nickel is not rare or scarce.
If the V on the back is missing, it's possible that it's simply worn off from use. In such condition, it isn't worth much, perhaps $2 or so.
Indian Head Nickels (with a buffalo on the back) were only minted from 1913 to 1938, so I have to assume you have something else -- perhaps a Liberty Head Nickel (with a big "V" on the back)? A well-worn 1891 Liberty Head Nickel is worth about $3.00
If the true value is t and the calculated or measured value is v then absolute error = |v - t|, the absolute value of (v - t).If v >= t then the absolute value is v - tif v
That depends on the value of v.
The V on the back suggests the coin is actually a nickel, as V is the Roman numeral for 5. If this is the case, the coin is NOT silver, and values start at around $5 depending on condition.
The coin was designed by Charles Barber, not George Morgan. The V stands for 5 in Roman numerals (remember them?) so you have a nickel. Please see the Related Question for more.
The reason your coin is the size and color of a nickel is that it IS a nickel, not a penny. Remember Roman numerals? V = 5. Please see the Related Question for more information.
Remember Roman numerals? V = 5, not 10, so you have a nickel. That's also why it's the size of a nickel, not the size of a dime. Please see the Related Question for values.
Remember Roman numerals? V stands for 5 (as in 5 cents), not victory. What you have is called a Liberty nickel or sometimes a V nickel. There's more information at the question "What is the value of a 1912 US nickel?"
The coin is a 1898 Liberty Head nickel (1883-1912) most show very heavy wear and are valued at $5.00-$9.00.
Yes - remember "V" means 5 in Roman numerals. The famous "Liberty Nickel" carried a V on the back.
15x its face value if you can read the date
My strong guess is that your "dime" is actually the same size and thickness as a nickel, because .................. it IS a nickel. The "V" is of course the Roman numeral meaning 5. Please see the Related Question for details
