There were no V nickels minted in 1867. That design was introduced in 1883.
If you have a shield nickel with that date it's worth $30 to $80 if the design has rays on it, $16 to $40 if there are no rays.
You have a Liberty Head Nickel dated 1909, the V on the reverse is the Roman numeral 5. Coins in average condition have values of $1.00-$3.00
If the coin is dated 1866, it can't have a "V" on the reverse. The first "V" (Liberty Head) nickel was issued in 1883. Look at the coin again and post new question.

To clear things up, the "lady" is Miss Liberty, and "V" is of course the Roman numeral for 5.However, the last Liberty Head nickels were struck for circulation in 1912 so your coin can't be dated 1981. If you meant 1891, please see the question "What is the value of an 1891 US nickel?" for more details.
A 1901 US Nickel is worth between $2 and $70. In the future, please add the condition of the coin so I can value it more precisely for you.
The value of the 1906 V nickel varies greatly depending on the condition of the coin. This nickel can be worth as much as about 4 dollars depending on its definition.
This would be a Liberty Nickel, also called a "V" nickel. They were minted from 1883 to 1912 (and 5 dated 1913). Values range from about 10 cents for one worn almost beyond recognition to about $2 Million (for one of those 1913's).
Please rephrase question.
