There's no US dime called a "Victory" dime. All 1908 US dimes carry a portrait of Miss Liberty on the front and the words ONE DIME on the back. They're called Liberty dimes or more commonly "Barber" dimes after Charles Barber, the artist who designed them. You may be confusing the coin with a 1908 Liberty Head coin that has the letter V on the back. The reason that coin is the size of a nickel is that it IS a nickel, and the letter V is the Roman numeral for 5, not an abbreviation for Victory. There's more information at the Related Questions.
