It varies by condition and mint mark. In worn condition from the Philadelphia mint (no mint mark), it's worth around 50 cents. A '26-D is worth at least $8, and a '26-S is worth at least $16.

It depends on the grade of the coin. Most have a lot of wear and sell for $1.00-$3.00. Look on the back of the coin below the word Five Cents. It may be blank or have a D or S mintmark.

No Mintmark-

Very Worn-$1-$3

Moderately worn-$6

Some Wear-$12

Almost No Wear-$20-$23

No Wear- $44-$2,260

D mintmark-

Very Worn-$8-$20

Moderately worn-$90

Some Wear-$180

Almost No Wear-$250-$325

No Wear-$342-$10,890

S mintmark-

Very worn-$17-$89

Moderately worn-$240

Some Wear-$1,050

Almost No Wear-$2,200-$2,970

No Wear-$4,590-$97,500

The prices are as of July 2011. These prices vary greatly on the condition of the coin. You may get more or less when you take them to a collector.

"Nickle"

The correct spelling is nickel.

7-10-11>>> Assuming the coin is circulated and has no mintmark, the 1920 Buffalo nickel is a comm date of the series. For an accurate assessment of value the coin needs to be seen and graded. Most coins of this type have seen heavy use and show a lot of wear. In general, the retail value of average circulated grade coins is $2.00-$8.00. Values are a market average and only for coins in collectible condition, coins that are bent, corroded, scratched, used as jewelry or have been cleaned have far less value if any to a collector or dealer.

The condition of the coin determines the value, in good condition, it is worth about $3.50 but if it is extremely fine condition, it is worth over $120.

I would recommend to Google a web site site to show you the various conditions and values.

What is the value of a silver buffalo nickel?

Please don't assume that because a coin is old it has to be made out of silver. Buffalo nickels were issued from 1913 to 1938 and all were struck in an alloy of copper and nickel. There has never been a silver buffalo nickel. If you can see the coin's date on the front, please enter a new question in the form "What is the value of a <date> US nickel" in the large box at the top of the page and click the GO button. (<date> is of course your coin's actual date, like 1920 or 1936) If the date isn't visible on the front (a common problem with buffalo nickels) it's called a "cull" and is worth at most 10 or 15 cents.
