With the high mintages for this year, if your coin has been circulated, it has no added value. Even a gem uncirculated example is worth less than 25 cents.
Composition All US nickels from 1866 to mid-1942 and 1945 to the present are made of an alloy of 25% nickel and 75% copper. They don't contain silver. The only nickels to have any silver in them are the famous "war nickels" made from 1942-1945 when nickel was a strategic metal.
The 1960 Jefferson Nickel (please note spelling) is a very common coin, millions are likely still in circulation. Unless it's a high grade coin just spend it.
