Not enough information. Denver and San Francisco nickels have had mint marks since 1912 and Philadelphia nickels have had them 1942-45 and 1980-present. Please post a new question with the coin's date, the mint mark letter, and how worn the coin is. Those are the most important factors in its value. Thanks!
