Best Answer

The 1885 V nickel is the most valuable of the set because it had the second lowest mintage at just below 1.5 million. Compare that to, say, the 1891 V nickel with 16.8 million, or the 1907 at 39.2 million. The lowest mintage was the 1912-S at 238 thousand (not including the 5 known 1913 V nickels, as those are more of an anomaly).

The 1885 Liberty Head Nickel is the key date for the series, retail values for coins that show heavy wear are $500.00-$800.00 so if you actually have one of the coins, I suggest you have the coin graded by a collector or dealer.

Why is a dime so small but a nickel so big but the dime is worth more?

The reason is because the dime used to be made of silver, while the nickel has always been a copper/nickel blend. Silver is worth more, which is why the coin could be smaller, but worth more. There used to be a silver half-dime, but the coin was so small that it was replaced by the nickel.
