The 1954 Denver nickel is not rare or special but it is oldish. The fact that a person can find a 56 year old object still fascinates me. Then again I am easily hypnotized by small shiny objects.
For these older coins from 1938-1967 the mintmark is on the back. More specifically the mintmark is on the reverse to the right of the Monticello. It would be either a D or S or blank. If it were one of the wartime silvers it would be above the building.
Here's the stats...
Type/Country: 5 Cents / United States
Year: 1954D
Mintage: 117,183,060
Metal: 75% Copper, 25% Nickel
Value: $0.10 in Fine
I would say ignore the lint on the back but it is too obvious. I cleaned one side one my shorts, who knew my pants were so linty.
Do you have a nickel and want to know its value? Leave a comment/question and I will do my best to find out the price and history for you.

the lint- its driving me nuts. distracting me from your creative background which I cannot decipher. Due to the lint, of course.
I am particularly fond of really old coins, too. They have a history.
Funny thing is in hand I couldn't see the lint but once I took the picture every little bit of dust pops up crystal clear.
Background of the day is window sill after the window was left open during a storm. I'm bad at cleaning the sills.
i have a nickel. on one side its the beaver with the year 1952. on the other side it says georgivs vi dei gratia rex with a picture of a man. underneath his picture it says hp in really small letters. the edge of the coin has the same design as a loonie or penny.

I love spending time talking about NICKELS!!!
Is a 1954 copper nickel possible? If it is then i have a possibility of having one. I also have or might have a 1974 copper dime? How can i tell? And how much(if its real) will it be?

Yes it is possible.
They need to be weighed with a 0.01 gram scale. If either is underweight it is possible they are errors worth hundreds of dollars.
So I found 2 nickels while going through a case from the bank and found two copper nickels. 1954D and 1957D. Are you telling me these aren't someone's chemistry experiment?

Two possibilities:
1 sat in some kind of acid or base and it has leeched the copper, no extra value.
2 is a Off-Metal error of some type, it should be weighed and value depends on type of error
a have a nickel from 1948 do what its worth
