Assuming the coin is circulated and has no mintmark, the 1918 Buffalo nickel is a better date coin of the series. For an accurate assessment of value the coin needs to be seen and graded. Most coins show a lot of wear. In general retail values for low grade coins are $5.00-$8.00, better grade are $15.00-$30.00 and coins showing almost no wear run from $50.00-$70.00. Values are a market average and only for coins in collectible condition, coins that are bent, corroded, scratched or have been cleaned have far less value if any to a collector or dealer.

What can anyone tell me about my 1918 Buffalo Indian Head Nickel which is gold in color.?

The Buffalo Indian Head Nickel was minted from 1913 to 1938. Most of these coins were made of a copper-nickel alloy, but some were plated in gold as a novelty or for jewelry purposes.
