The worn-off date is common on Buffalo nickels, due to the coin's design and date's location. They're only worth about 10 cents. It's possible to reveal the date with the use of chemicals, but that doesn't help the value at all (unless it turns out to be a key date, though it still wouldn't be worth much).
The "E" is actually an "F" and all Buffalo nickels have the "F" under the date. It's the initial of the designer James Earle Fraser. Values for average coins, as of 8-26-11, are $1.00-$3.00 also the 1936 has the highest mintage of all Buffalo nickels.
