Buffalo or Indian Head nickels were minted in the US from 1913 to 1938.
Buffalo (a/k/a Indian Head) nickels were minted from 1913 to 1938.They were struck at all three then-active mints. The mint mark position is on the back, under the words FIVE CENTS:No mint mark = PhiladelphiaD = DenverS = San Francisco
These coins are called Indian head nickels or buffalo nickels but not "buffalo head". After all, they show the whole buffalo on the back, not just its head! Please see the question "What is the value of a 1929 US nickel?" for more information.
It is a common date among Buffalo nickels and is worth less then $2 unless it is in perfect condition.
Please check your coin again and post a new question. Liberty nickels (with a Roman numeral V, or 5, on the back) were made from 1883 to 1912. All nickels minted in 1935 would be buffalo (a/k/a Indian head) nickels.

1913 is when the US mint started making buffalo nickels. Remember, the coin is called a "buffalo nickel" or an "Indian Head nickel" but not "buffalo head" because it shows the whole animal on the back.
Please check again and post a new, separate question. Buffalo nickels were first released in 1913. All 1898 nickels carried a Liberty head design with the Roman numeral V on the back.
There is a buffalo on the back of US nickels.
No such coin. Buffalo Nickels are very different from war nickels. Buffalo (or Indian Head) nickels were struck from 1913-1938. The Jefferson nickel series started in 1938 but in the years of WW II nickel was needed for the war effort so the government replaced the nickel with silver in the Jefferson nickels from late in 1942 to 1945 creating what is now called "War Nickels" these coins are identified by large mint marks on the back of the coin above the dome of Monticello. The Jefferson nickel returned to the prewar composition in 1946 and is the same today.
The Indian head design was introduced in 1913 and has the famous image of a buffalo on the back. All V (or Liberty) nickels have a picture of Miss Liberty on the front.

Buffalo(*) nickels were minted from 1913 to 1938. Please check your coin again. (*)There's never been a buffalo head nickel. The terms are "Indian head" or "buffalo" and both refer to the same coin, but the picture on the back is of the whole buffalo, not just its head
There aren't any nickels called "buffalo head" coins. They're referred to as "buffalo nickel" or "Indian Head nickels" but not "buffalo head" because it shows the whole animal on the back, LOL. So many buffalo nickels were made that most circulation issues aren't very valuable except in top-quality condition. There are several valuable error coins, though - please see the Related Question for more details.
