It's possible you have a Civil War token rather than a U.S. coin. The first nickels were introduced in 1866. Before that the U.S. issued "half dimes" that were made of silver. The 1861 version of that coin had a wreath on the back rather than stars.

What is the ending of dead stars?

When stars die, the matter(dust and dirt) is spread out where the star once lived. The matter would continue to drift outward, but gravitational forces pull the matter back together overtime. Eventually, the recollected star matter forms into a dense ball again and creates energy. Thus, the death of stars leads to new stars - it is a circle of life.
