July 15, 2009 These coins are commonly known by 2 names - Indian Head nickels and Buffalo nickels. The 1936 nickel was produced at 3 US Mint facilities, Philadelphia, Denver and San Francisco. It's not considered to be a rare date.

The mintmark can be found on the reverse [tails] side of the coin at the bottom beneath the words "FIVE CENTS". A "D" indicates the coin was minted at Denver. An "S" indicates the coin was minted at San Francisco. If there is no mintmark, that indicates the coin was minted at Philadelphia. The letter "P" is used to denote the Philadelphia mint in the values for this coin in the chart below.
