Check under the "FIVE CENTS" on the reverse of the coin. Possible mint marks are:
- No mint mark = Philadelphia
- D = Denver
- S = San Francisco
Also note that the coin is called either a Buffalo Nickel or Indian Head Nickel, but not "buffalo head". After all, it shows the whole buffalo, not just its head!
