A 2006 US nickel does not contain any silver. It is composed of a combination of copper and nickel.
Copper-nickel, not silver. The only nickels that ever contained any silver were the famous "war nickels" made from 1942 to 1945, when silver replaced nickel metal because nickel was needed for the war effort.
A 2005 US nickel that has Ocean in View on the back is an ordinary coin from the Westward Journey series. If you found it in change it has no added value. A nice uncirculated one might retail for 50 to 75 cents.

The only nickels to contain any silver were the so-called "war nickels" minted from 1942 to 1945. Your nickel, and all others ever minted except for war nickels, is made of 75% copper and 25% nickel.
Please post a new question with your nickel's date. Except for the famous "war nickels" minted from 1942 to 1945, ALL US nickels made since 1866 have been struck in the same 75/25 cupronickel alloy.
Please don't assume that because a coin is old it has to be made of silver. US nickels made from 1866 to mid-1942 and from 1945 to the present are made of a copper-nickel alloy, not silver. See the question "What is the value of a 1936 US nickel?" for more information. From mid-1942 to 1945 nickels did contain a small amount of silver because nickel metal was needed for the war effort. Those "war nickels" are the ONLY ones that have any silver in them.
