A nickel doesn't necessarily cost anything. To receive a nickel though, you have to either trade in another value of money and ask for that quantity instead. The value of the nickel is 5 cents but it doesn't necessarily cost anything. Correction If you're referring to the value of a nickel to a coin collector, it depends on the coin's date, condition, and mint mark. Pretty much anything found in change today isn't worth more than 5 cents but older nickels can be worth anywhere from a dime to many hundreds of thousands of dollars - - - but as noted, "it depends". In the first decade of the 21st century, commodity prices for copper and nickel, which make up the five-cent coin, rose dramatically, pushing the cost of manufacturing a nickel from 3.46 cents in fiscal year 2003 to 10.09 cents in fiscal year 2012.
All circulating quarters dated 1965 and later, and most proof quarters, are made of copper-nickel. They don't contain any silver. If you found it in change and it has a D or P mint mark, it's only worth 25 cents. If your coin has an S mint mark, it's a proof coin that was made for sale to collectors. If it has a copper-colored edge it's also made of copper-nickel and might sell for $2 to $10 as of 05/2010. If it's in a special holder labelled "Prestige Proof", then it IS a silver coin and is worth $8 to $17.

This will vary greatly depending on date and mint mark.
A 1978 nickel with the mint mark "PS" is not a genuine mint mark from the U.S. Mint. It is likely a novelty or altered coin, so it would not hold any significant numismatic value beyond its face value of 5 cents.
