I acquired one today and it costs a pretty penny for that pretty penny.
In good condition around 500 bucks, however I got mine free because I have friends in a museum.
No such (US) coin exists because the copper-nickel 3 cent piece was not minted until 1865.
Look at the again, with a date of 1854 it's not a nickel three cent piece, it should be a silver three cent piece. Post new question.
Nickel 3-cent pieces were only struck from 1865 to 1889. If you instead have a silver 3-cent piece with that date, its value would be in the range of $25 to $100 depending on condition.
the value of the nickel is 5 cent
Great - you have a rare Copper-Nickel 3 Cent piece - a 1881 coin in fine condition is worth: $30.00.
Canadian money does not actually have a nickel. They have what is called a five cent piece. A 2002 Canadian 5¢ piece is only worth face value.
Post new question, the first nickel was struck in 1866.
A fifty cent piece and a nickel. One is not a nickel, but the other one is.
A 1912 Nickel was called: a Liberty Head 5 Cent piece - if its condition is at least very good (VG8), its value is: $4.00.
Three-cent pieces were minted during the 19th century. If you mean 1873, please see the question "What is the value of an 1873 US 3 cent piece?"
