More than ONE BILLION 1981 nickels were issued for circulation. None plated with copper by the Mint. It's a novelty coin of some kind that has no numismatic collectible value. It's just a nickel.

What is an 1884 Trade Silver Dollar?

Trade dollars were US coins made in silver to trade in the far East. However, your coin, if it is an 1884 Trade Dollar, it is counterfeit. There were only 10 examples minted that year, all of them are known. So, when it comes to value, the only value your coin can have is if it is minted in real silver, if it is minted in real silver, it is worth however much silver is in your coin. If it is silver plated lead, or silver plated copper, or non-silver alloy like "nickel silver" your coin is essentially worthless.
