There are no 5 cent coins the size of which you are speaking. However they did make a Large cent prior to 1856 that is between a quarter and half in size. As far as the value goes we would need date and condition to help make a determination.

You can find massive big Russian 5 kopek copper coins if you want :p

Those are as big as a hockey puck and can be quite lethal... afterall over 1.5 ounce of copper in one...
