    Indian head nickel value?

    So what's this worth. 1929 is the date.

    Other than the 5 cents. ....beat y'all to it!

    From 42 cents to $42 depends if minted in Denver. Would have a d on back for Denver.

      It's a common date and in that condition about 15-25 cents.

        I found a Indian head penny from 1892, a while back and looked it up. Not worth much of anything. So I just added it to my collection. What I found, is the Indian head pennies that were made during the Civil war are worth a lot more. The production of money went way down during those years.

        The silver pieces are going to be a bit more than pennies.

          That is commonly called a buffalo nickel.

            It's worth what someone will pay for it. I have a bunch of them and took some to a coin store here in Colorado Springs to find out the value. The guy told me to spend them...

            I have some WWII era coins also, including a Reichsmark NAZI coin. I have had the lot for sale for $15 (about 10 coins) for maybe 3 months and no one has bought them.

            Coins are a tough one. Takes a lot of research to find out if any are worth anything, and unless you get extremely lucky and find a really rare one, it likely doesn't offset the time you put into the search, from my experience.

              I found a buffalo nickel in my change the other day. It's so worn that the date is rubbed off though.

                I remember as a kid there was a company that sold a cylinder shaped cardboard tube of peanuts and they would put an Indian Head nickel inside.
                No bull, this was back in the 50's.

                  I remember that. I also remember not having the money to buy the peanuts !

                    There also could be worth more if the buffalo is the 3 legged one. Not much more though

                      That one is worth about 15-25 cents as someone already said. Buffalo nickels are bad about having the dates worn off. I personally have more than I probably ought to have. Dang ebay auctions.
