The Buffalo or Indian Head Nickel coins were minted from 1913 to 1938 and in good quantity. The Buffalo nickel would enjoy a good run, but would eventually be replaced by the United States current nickel, the Jefferson Nickel. These coins like the other nickels are 75% copper and contain 25% nickel. None were issued with any other intrinsic value based off silver or gold.

The Buffalo or Indian Head Nickel is loved by many a coin collector, and for good reason. These coins pay homage to the Native American heritage that most all Americans can at least partially call their own. Many people (including myself) have a percentage of Native American blood coursing through their veins.

Head

These coins are riddled with errors and strange mintages. There are 3 legged buffalo, 3.5 legged buffalo, D's over S's Numbers stamped over numbers, and so on. The may be the most error filled group of coins the United States mint has issued in the last hundred years. If you are a numismatic who enjoys the rush of finding a good error amongst the coins in population then this coin is for you! Happy Hunting!
