I'm going to say no -
It IS true that there are 1971 nickels without the mintmark that are pretty rare (we don't know a number) but those are PROOF's.

I'm betting 9-10 that your's is a business strike - common to find in circulation.

Post a photo and we will be able to tell for sure.

oh im sure its not then, its not in good shape so

 

If you found it in circulation, than I'm willing to say it is not rare at all...
If it is a proof coin, than yes, you have a rare coin on your hands
Pictures help

 

One of 106,884,000 minted doesn't sound rare to me.
