The buffalo should be facing to the left on the coin, and its orientation should be opposite from the image of the Native American chief on the front. That is, the words FIVE CENTS should be near the same edge of the coin on the back as the top of the chief's head on the front.
If the reverse side isn't oriented 180º versus the front you could have what's called a rotated-die error. Such a coin would require in-person examination.

There are no reports of 1936 buffalo nickels being struck in the wrong metal. If you have access to a sensitive scale, weigh your coin. All buffalo nickels have a nominal weight of 5.0 gm so if your coin is close to that value, it's almost certain it was discolored or plated, possibly as part of a common high school chemistry experiment. If its weight is significantly different from 5.0 gm (e.g. 4.5, 5.7, etc.) it should be examined in person by a dealer or appraiser who handles error coins.
You've got to be a bit more specific on how it is stamped wrong before we can assign a premium over silver value on the coin.
The value of an 1861 US nickel can vary depending on its condition, rarity, and any unique characteristics it may have. In general, an 1861 US nickel in average circulated condition may be worth around $10 to $50, while a well-preserved or rare variety could fetch hundreds or even thousands of dollars at auction. It is recommended to have the coin professionally graded and authenticated to determine its exact value.
