This is one of the years they made nickels partially out of silver. At current silver values, it's worth about 50 cents.
Unless it's proof or uncirculated, 5 cents. It's a Jefferson nickel not a Monticello nickel.
That's a silver war nickel. On average, it's worth about $2, or upwards of $4 if uncirculated.
Check that coin again. The only nickels with the large mint mark above Monticello were those dated 1942-45.
This is a War Nickel (1942-1945) that has silver in it. The large "S" above the dome identifies it, circulated coins are valued at $1.00-$3.00 uncirculated are $5.00-$10.00 but all values depend on he grade of the coin.
That depends on which version you have. If there is no mintmark, then it's made of copper and nickel, worth maybe 50 cents in decent condition. If there is a large letter P on the back (above Monticello), then it's a silver war nickel, worth a dollar or two.

A 1945 nickel with an "S" mintmark above Monticello (the building on the back) is a wartime nickel made of 35% silver. Its value depends on the coin's condition and silver content but typically ranges from a few dollars to around $10.
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 not silver, it's made of copper-nickel like all other nickels except the WWII ones with a large mint mark above the dome of Monticello. There's more information at the Related Question.

To clear things up, that would be WHITE HOUSE rather than WHITEHOUSE . . . except that as the name under the building shows, it's actually MONTICELLO, Thomas Jefferson's home. Please see the question "What is the value of a 1943 US nickel?" for more information.
Please don't assume that because a coin is old it has to be made of silver. It's made of copper-nickel like all other nickels except the WWII ones with a large mint mark above the dome of Monticello. 1941 is not a rare date for Jefferson nickels.
