A nickel's value is not voided due to worn surface. It should still be worth 5 cents.
A 1961 blank what?????
Check with any local coin collector for sure, but this coin can be worth a LOT of money.
Monticello, Thomas Jefferson's plantation home.
The reasons of a coin having an image only on one side are varied. I suggest you take the coin to a coin shop and have it appraised to get a more accurate estimate of value.
5 cents. It was mass produced for the Lewis and Clark commemorative in the fall of 2006. The nickel had different designs over the 2004-2006 mintings.
A 1984 nickel with one side stamped with Jefferson and the other side blank is likely a novelty coin created after minting. It does not hold any numismatic value to collectors and is worth face value, which is 5 cents.
A 1961 blank what?????
Yes. The note has a blank back side.

Chances are it is worth something. The question though is, was it a nickel struck on a quarter blank? Or was the nickel simply struck off-center? If it was struck on a quarter blank, the edge will have both redish brown and white. If it was struck on a nickel blank it will be a solid color. The best thing to do is take it in to several coin shops and get different opinions on what its worth. It is hard to give values for error coins sight unseen. But some coin dealers specialize in errors while others use them simply for curiosities.
A 1988 five dollar bill that is blank on the back side could be considered a misprint or error note, which can increase its value to collectors. While a regular 1988 five dollar bill is worth its face value of five dollars, a blank-back error could be worth significantly more, depending on its condition and demand among collectors. It's advisable to have it appraised by a currency expert to determine its exact value.
It's a 1902 Liberty Head Nickel with a value of $3.00-$5.00 in average condition
It is a mule.
It is worth five cents.
The obverse design for that nickel has a different portrait of Thomas Jefferson, with him in profile and only on the left half of the coin. See : http://usmint.gov/mint_programs/index.cfm?action=nickel_series Perhaps this is the nickel you have? If so, this is normal and has no added value. If what you have is different than this, then send me pictures of both sides of the coin, and I will try to evaluate it for you. Dan Moore Working.Man@usa.net
This could happen if two blank planchets got into the press together, causing one to get stamped with only the heads side, and the other to get stamped with only the tails side. This is a relatively rare error, and could be worth $50 to $100 or more. This could also be a normal nickel that somebody has altered. If it weighs significantly less than 5 grams, then I would say that it has been altered and has no added value.
