1912 was the only year Liberty nickels were struck at branch mints as well as at Philadelphia. If there is a mint mark, it would be a small D or S on the reverse below the button to the left of the word CENTS.

At that time Philadelphia didn't use a "P" mint mark so all Liberty head nickels minted there will not have a mint mark.

How much is a 1938 liberty nickel worth?

If the mint mark is a D the nickel is probably worth no more than a dollar. If the mint mark is an S it could be worth around $3.00 By the way, there is no such thing as a 1938 liberty nickel. The only nickels minted in 1938 were buffaloes and Jeffersons.

Where is the mint mark located on a nickel?

That depends on the type of nickel and the date. On the updated Jefferson nickel 2006-present, the mark is on the front just below the date. On the 2005 nickel, it's below the word "Liberty." For nickels dated 1968-2004, the mark was below the date. 1938-42 and 1946-64, it was on the back, next to Monticello. 1942-45 were the silver "war" nickels, with the mint mark in a larger size above Monticello. Going back to buffalo nickels, the mark was on the back, right at the bottom.
