If it has enough details to still clearly see the entire horn on the buffalo, it will be worth $8.00 or more. Check the back, under the FIVE CENTS for a letter "D" or "S". Having one of these mintmarks will make your coin worth more -- especially in the higher grades.

No nickel has ever been made of gold. You may have one that has been plated or it may be toned a gold color. Either way it's bad. Gold plating kills the collectible value of any coin. And for buffalo nickels, gold or blue toning means it's been chemically cleaned at some point. Unfortunately it's just a nickel.
