Coin values can vary greatly depending on year of issue, condition and which mint made the coin. Because of this, the value of a V nickel can range from $0.75 to more than $245.00
Unless damaged, you can expect to get a good price for it. If the year is clearly readable then just to start, it's worth 15 times it's original value.
Liberty Head V-Nickels are worth about 15 times the value of a nickel in good condition. Key dates could bring in much more. an example is an 1885 V-Nickel could go for $240+ each.
