Well, let's just say you might want to think twice before plugging that old Canadian nickel into a parking meter. While one of your sources is about as useful as a chocolate teapot—it's just a generic YouTube page footer—the other one gives away the entire game.
The Greysheet, a publication that takes coin values very seriously, has a whole section for "Canada Nickel Five Cent 1922– Coin Values & Prices." The very fact that a detailed price guide exists for these coins is your answer. After all, nobody bothers to create a comprehensive price list for something that is only ever worth five cents. The existence of such a guide proves that certain years, mint marks, or conditions can turn that humble beaver into a collector's prize.
So yes, some Canadian nickels are absolutely valuable. While the provided text doesn't name the specific rock stars of the five-cent world, it confirms that there's a market for them and a reason to check the dates on your change. That coin in your pocket could be worth much more than its face value.
