There are almost no rare nickels still in circulation. If you're lucky you might find some at an estate sale or if someone accidentally spends one. General things to know are:
- Most nickels minted since 1946 have little or no added value; the same is true for 1940 and 1941.
- 1950-D nickels are moderately scarce and worth several dollars in average condition.
- "War nickels" 1942-1945 with a large mint mark over Monticello are worth at least $1 because they contain a small amount of silver.
- Common-date buffalo nickels are worth at least $1 but that can go up for coins in better condition.
- Older-date buffalo nickels can be worth a couple of dollars or more
- Common-date Liberty nickels are worth at least $3; older ones can be (but not necessarily are) worth more.

Uh, please give the coin another look. All 1985 nickels carry the familiar Jefferson portrait used until 2004. Lewis and Clark Bicentennial nickels were minted in 2004 and 2005. In any case, none of those 3 dates is rare.

There are only a few truly rare dates. Among standard issues, 1877 and 1909-S are considered to be key dates. 1877 Indian cents retail for about $1000 in worn condition and go up to $150,000 in top condition. A 1909-S retails for $500 to a several thousand. There is also an 1888/1887 "overdate" resulting from re-use of an existing die.
