The Greek Drachma is a defunct currency and only valuable, perhaps, as a collector's item. However, given that less than 50% of Greek drachma coins were converted to Euros, the 5 drachma is likely very common and will not fetch any serious value as a collector's item.
At the time when the Euro was adopted, 5 drachmae was pegged at €0.0147. Currently, as of 5 August 2016, €0.0147 is worth $0.0163 USD. So, the currency would theoretically be worth this $0.0163 USD at present (less than 2 cents). However, as a defunct currency, it no longer has this worth.
