Best Answer

This famous design is called either a buffalo nickel or an Indian head nickel; both names are about equally common.

Assuming the coin is circulated and has no mintmarks, 1926 is a high mintage common date Buffalo nickel. 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 retail values for low grade coins are $1.00-$4.00, better grade are $6.00-$12.00 and coins showing almost no wear run from $20.00-$28.00. Values are a market average and only for coins in collectible condition, coins that are bent, corroded, scratched or have been cleaned have far less value if any to a collector or dealer. Assuming the coin has no mintmarks and is in average circulated condition.

Values are $1.00-$3.00 for this coin. It's a common date.
