The value, in 2005, was only 5 cents and depending on the amount circulated, the amounts of metal in the coin (and what metals), and the year. I am answering this in 2012. So if the coin is not just plated with gold then by now, it should be around $4-5. But by the time 2050 comes around it will be somewhere in the ballpark of $200-300...
CorrectionIt's an altered coin with no value to coin collectors.2005-dated US nickels are all made from the same cupronickel alloy used for ALL nickels except those minted during WWII. Because the 2005 design was issued for only one year, some companies plated them with gold and sold them as "instant collectibles". However there's almost no secondary market for them and it would cost more to remove the gold than its resale value.

What is the value of a 2005 gold plated buffalo nickel?
5 cents. Gold plating adds a very thin layer of gold on the coin, it hardly increases the coin's value. The 2005 buffalo nickels were intended for circulation and only worth 5 cents unless uncirculated or proof, but since your coin has been damaged due to gold plating, even if it was uncirculated or proof it is now just worth 5 cents.
