Please check again and post a new question. The first nickels were made in 1866, and buffalo nickels were issued from 1913 to 1938.
The "F" on the front is the designer's initial. The mint mark, if there is one, would be located on the back below FIVE CENTS.
F is not a mint mark. It's the initial of the coin's designer, James E. Fraser. The mint mark position is on the back under FIVE CENTS. Please see the question "What is the value of a 1929 US nickel?" for more information
The "F" you see under the date is NOT a mintmark, it's the designers James Earle Fraser initial. The mintmark (if it has one) is on the back under "FIVE CENTS". The likely value is 25 cents to $1.00 In addition the coin is called a buffalo nickel or an Indian head nickel, but not "buffalo head" because it shows the entire animal :)
This is part of the designers initials!
"F" is designer's initial (James Fraser) rather than a mint mark. The mint mark, if there is one, would be located on the back under the words FIVE CENTS. Please see the question "What is the value of a 1936 US nickel?" for more information
The letter "F" on the front of the coin is not a mint mark; it's the initial of the coin's designer James Earle Fraser. The mint mark position on all Buffalo (= Indian Head) nickels is located below the words "Five Cents" on the coin's reverse side. Please see the question "What is the value of a 1913 US nickel?" for more information.
The "f" is not a mintmark but rather an initial. With out a date it is impossible to tell the value of your coin. Most buffalo or Indian head nickels aren't worth much. Post a new question and structure it like this to ensure an answer- "What is the value of a <date> US nickel" or " What is a <date> US nickel worth".
The "F" under the date of the buffalo nickel isn't a mintmark, it's the initial of the coin's designer, James E. Fraser. The mintmark position is on the back under the words FIVE CENTS. Please see the question "What is the value of a 1927 US nickel?" for more information.

It stands for James Earle Fraser, the designer of the Buffalo nickel. Since the buffalo silver dollar borrows the design of the buffalo nickel, Fraser's initial is placed on it also.

To clear things up: > Not an "E" mintmark. What you're seeing is a small F, which is the initial of the designer James Fraser. Mint marks on Buffalo nickels are below the words FIVE CENTS on the back. > Either "Indian head" or "buffalo", but not "buffalo head". Buffalo nickels show the whole animal!

The 1930-S Buffalo nickel is valued at $1.00-$4.00 in average condition. The "F" is on all the coins, It's the designers initial.
F is the initial of the designer and not a mint mark. All buffalo's are imprinted with an f.
