NICKEL, not "nickle"

BUFFALO, not "buffilow"

Now that we're past basic spelling, 1938 was the last year that buffalo nickels were minted. They were only made at the Denver Mint, and then only until the new Jefferson design was available. However, there had been plans to make them in San Francisco as well but when that didn't happen, the "S" mint dies were recut with a "D" for use in Denver. As a result there are 2 varieties:

Nickels with a clear D mint mark are worth $3 in worn condition, $4 if almost like new, and around $10 if uncirculated.

Nickels where the recut "S" shows underneath the D mint mark are worth $6 to $30 depending on condition.

Please don't assume that just because a coin is old, it has to be made of silver. Nickels are called "nickels" because, well, they contain nickel. All except the ones minted during WWII are made of an alloy of nickel and copper, with no silver at all. Please see the Related Question for more information.

What is the value of a six pence 1934?

9,304,009 1934 British sixpences were struck in 50% silver (only half silver) with 40% copper, 5% nickel and 5% zinc.. They are a relatively common George V coin. In mint state they can be worth around £25-£30. In the lower grades expect them to fetch between £2.50 and £15.00 (September 2010 prices). They weigh 2.8 grammes (silver scrap value is £12-a-Troy Ounce) - so scrap value would be around 50-60p.
