How do I find out the value of 2 buffalo nickles I have without paying an (appraiser?)? Dates are worn off. I know there are a few versions of the stampings/design and a very interesting story behind the differences, but that's about it.

Sorry, dateless Buffalo nickels ( correct term is Indian head but few use it ) are only worth a nickel. There is a chemical out there called nic-a-lene that will bring up the date. Most collectors frown on this, but I see no harm. They are easy to identify, so no one should be taken or cheated, beside not all collectors can afford the rarer dates. You can get the nic-a-lene from a coin dealer or he can get it for you.

all of them have been made interior the 1800's with a Indian head on one ingredient and the buffalo on the different. The date is under the indians head and a number of the time isn't examine-able via placed on & age. They do say 5 cents on them and characteristic the be conscious Liberty for sure printed on them besides.

Since the dates are worn off, they're worth 5 cents each.

Dates are worn off so they aren't worth much I'll tell ya that much..any coin with that much wear depreciates its value tremendously

If the dates are wore off, they're considered to be in poor condition, you probably won't get more than face value for them.

If the dates are worn off, they are probably virtually worthless.
