Best Answer

You need to know the coins' dates and mint marks before you can determine their values. Look on the back under the words FIVE CENTS. There may be a small D for the Denver mint or S for San Francisco, or it may be blank which indicates the coin was made in Philadelphia. Then check out a price guide like the one linked below.

How much is a 1928 E buffalo nickel worth?

The letter you see is not a "E" it's an "F" the initial of James Earle Fraser the designer of the coin, and all Buffalo Nickels have it. If the coin has a mintmark, it's on the reverse under FIVE CENTS. 1928 is a common date, coins in average circulated condition have retail values of $1.00 to $5.00


What is the value of a silver buffalo quarter?

Depending upon the condition of the coin-how close to 'new' does it look?- it is probably only worth its weight in silver, which is calculated in the daily spot price of silver bullion.CorrectionThere's no such coin as a "silver buffalo quarter". The buffalo design was used on nickels from 1913 to 1938 and again in 2005 (but very much revised), and all of those nickels were struck in an alloy of nickel and copper. Silver quarters either had a picture of Miss Liberty or George Washington. Please check your coin again and post a new question with its denomination and date.

How much is a roll of 1938 nickels bu worth?

What you saw as an "E" is not a mint mark, and is actually an "F", the monogram of the coin's designer James Fraser. The mint mark on buffalo nickels is under the words FIVE CENTS. Plain (no mint mark) and "S" 1936 nickels are worth a dollar or two in average condition. "D" coins are worth slightly more.

What is the worth of a double brick of buffalo nickels?

It's not possible to give a specific answer unless you know each coin's date, mint mark, and condition. The best that can be said is that common-date buffalo nickels in average condition have a retail price of about $1 each. Those without dates are considered culls and sell for 15-25 cents each. Better-condition and scarcer dates can sell for much more but each one is different.


Can different kinds of nickels be worth more than 5 cents?

Many older US nickels can be worth more than face value, in some cases a LOT more, but the prices depend VERY much on the coins' dates, conditions, and mint marks. A few examples:"War nickels" dated 1942 to 1945 with a large mint mark on the back are worth 75 cents to a dollar in average condition. These special nickels contain 1.75 gm of silver, and are the only US nickels to ever contain that metal.Average-condition buffalo nickels with visible dates can be worth at least a dollar, and sometimes much more depending on their date and mint mark.Average-condition Liberty Head nickels are worth at lease 2 or 3 dollars each.Rarities like a 1937 nickel with a 3-legged buffalo, or a 1917/18 overdate, can be worth hundreds of dollarsThe five 1913 Liberty Head nickels, an unauthorized striking, have sold for up to roughly $4 million.

What is a Buffalo nickel 1919p can't find it in the red book how much is it worth?

I'm very surprised you couldn't find your coin in the Red Book. 1919 is a common date for buffalo nickels. Perhaps you're looking specifically for a "P" mint mark. Remember that Philadelphia did not use a P on nickels until WW2 and then again starting in 1980. That means a 1919 Philadelphia nickel won't have a mint mark, nor will any other coin minted before 1980 except for those wartime nickels and 1979 dollars. Anyway, a 1919 buffalo nickel from Philly retails for a couple of bucks in average condition, up to maybe $14 in Almost Uncirculated condition.

How much are buffalo head nickels without any dates on them worth?

They usually sell for about 10 to 15 cents. Crafty people use them to decorate belts and make domed buttons. Note that these coins are called Buffalo Nickels or Indian Head Nickels, but not "Buffalo Head" nickels. After all, they show the whole buffalo and not just its head! ========================= The mint mark will be located on the back side under the words FIVE CENTS. Nickels minted in Philadelphia do not have a letter, though. Also, nickels minted from 1913 to 1925 had a design flaw that allowed their dates to wear off quickly. Unfortunately these "cull" nickels aren't worth much more than face value. The link below lists prices.


How do you tell how much an Indian head buffalo nickel is worth?

Value is determined by the coin's date, mint mark, and condition.
