It's best that you don't clean it. Cleaning a coin reduces or kills the collectible value of any coin. The 1887 Indian Head cent is not rare it's actually very common, average circulated coins are $3.00-$8.00.

Your clothes can be clean. Your car can be clean. An object can be clean. However, "to clean" is an action of taking something that is dirty or messed up to make it clean or tidy. We say "Go clean your room" as the shortened expression of "Go to clean your room". Then, toys, papers, clothing that are in disarray are cleaned up. Meaning put away or stored for later use. A person may "clean house", to do actions that serve "to clean" objects and areas, which we express as "clean up".
There is no such thing as an Indian head nickel minted in 1895. The first Indian head nickel was minted in 1913; prior to that was the Barber nickel, with the head of Liberty.

The first Indian Head/Buffalo Nickel was minted in Philadephia in the year 1913. The coin is actually called a buffalo nickel or an Indian head nickel, but not "buffalo head". After all, it shows the entire buffalo, not just its head :)

Oh, dude, a 1925 buffalo head nickel is a coin minted by the United States featuring a Native American profile on one side and a buffalo on the other. It's worth around a few bucks if it's in good condition, but like, don't expect it to pay off your student loans or anything. Just a cool piece of history, you know?
It's 100% certain that you have an Indian head nickel, and not a Liberty head nickel. There are millions of the former, and only 5 of the latter. Please see the question "What is the value of a 1913 Indian head nickel?" for more information.
