Around $1.50.
In 1942 silver nickels were only minted at Philadelphia and San Francisco.
That is a "war nickel". War nickels minted between 1942-45 are identified with a large P, D, or S above the Monticello on the back. These nickels are 35% silver, and so have a definite value. The idiot who says they're worth "about 5 cents" is stupid.
It's worth around $1.50 because it's 35% silver.
A uncirculated 1954 Jefferson Nickel (note spelling) is 25 cents. A coin without a 'D' or 'S' mintmark was made at the Philadelphia Mint. If you found it in change, it's likely not uncirculated. The coin contains no silver and is just face value.
It's not silver, it's copper-nickel. In circulated condition it's only worth face value. A nice uncirculated one will retail for $1.50 to $1.75

That wasn't something done at the mint, rather the cent was likely plated with zinc or nickel. So it has little to no collector value. The US government has never struck a penny in silver.

5 cents.
The 1936-D Buffalo nickEL is common, average condition coins are $1.00-$3.00
No such coin exists. All 1942-D nickels are made out of the standard 75% copper 25% nickel. Only 1942-S and 1942-P nickels were struck out of the "war nickel" alloy of 35% silver. A 1942-D nickel is worth about 7 cents if circulated and a couple of bucks if in better shape.
