The only US coin ever made with the roman numeral V (5) on the reverse was the Liberty Head Nickel 1883-1912 and the word CENTS is below the wreath and has no silver it's made from copper and nickel.Most coins show heavy wear an have low retail values of $1.00-$3.00.
That coin is a three-cent nickel (there is also a smaller coin which was also worth 3 cents but struck in silver and is generally called a three-cent silver). Depending on condition your coin can be worth anywhere from about a dollar to about 5 dollars if it is circulated.
That's a Barber or Liberty head dime. Face shot of Liberty w/cap & wreath designed by Barber.
If it has a mintmark it's on the reverse below the wreath.
This coin is commonly called the Liberty Nickel, it is made of copper-Nickel, and became to be called the "V" Nickel
Chief Engraver Charles E Barber designed a Liberty Head series for dimes, quarters, and half dollars, 1892-1916. Miss Liberty was on one side. The other side of the dime had a wreath, that of the quarter and of the half-dollar an eagle.
With all Morgan Silver Dollars, the mint mark is located on the reverse side underneath the wreath which is below the Eagle's arrows.

It's not a coin, it's a bullion piece or "round". Its value is tied to the spot price of silver, currently about $12-$13 per ounce.
