The "monument" is actually Monticello, Thomas Jefferson's home. The large "P" over its dome indicates your coin was made at the Philadelphia Mint and is a so-called war nickel. Depending on condition and date, its retail value is at least a dollar as of 10/2015
War nickels were minted from late 1942 to 1945 when nickel metal was in short supply. Instead of the usual cupronickel alloy, the Mint used a substitute alloy of 56% copper, 35% silver, and 9% manganese. The small amount of silver (1.75 gm) is what gives these coins extra value today.
Note: war nickels are the only US nickels that ever contained silver. All others regardless of date are made of an alloy of 25% nickel and 75% copper.
