Where the Buffalo roam

Are Buffalo nickel error coins that aren't listed worth more, and are newer Jefferson full step nickels worth what the book actually says their worth. I have one that's dated past 2000, and I read it's worth 3,250 dollars. Seems a little high.

value for regular coins varies by condition. a 2000 nickel that is worn or beat to death is worth a nickel
errors are a specialty. it take some thing dramatic to garner a premium.
as far as book prices - prices go up and down - depending - throughout the year. values published are fixed until next year. the people here referencing values use them for relative prices compared to lower or higher condition coins of the same year, mint, and type.
Finding someone to pay the $3250 will probably be more difficult than finding the coin itself.
I thought it was pretty common to find newer nickels with full steps?

Isn't the plural of buffalo buffalo? Like where the buffalo roam?
noun, often attributive. buf·fa·lo | \ ˈbə-fə-ˌlō \ plural buffalo or buffaloes also buffalos.

Never a slave to one plastic brand will I ever be.
But not buffalo's.
Buffaloed again.

I saw on greysheet.com where a 2002 d Jefferson full step nickel in Ms 67 was worth 3,750.
No idea if the value is realistic, but don't overlook the MS67 part. That's key.
Can you give an example?
Where are errors "listed"?
I'm thinking the OP owns a one-ounce gold Buffalo and if so- in MS70 (or PR70) it is listed with a value of $3,750.

To get the published values for top grade nickels, two things are a MUST: encapsulation by a top tier TPG and a very motivated buyer.
The chances of your coin being worth 5 cents are far greater than those of it being worth anywhere close to $3750.
Here’s an NGC MS67FS that brought $144 recently:

That looks like post-strike damage to me. What type of error did you think that was and how could it have occurred at the Mint?

It's raised. It hasn't been struck after. I took it to a coin dealer, but he didn't know what the value might be.
It's just blobs of extra metal.
It’s raised because the area next to it was pushed in/damaged, forcing the metal to move. The coin is worth less than 50 cents.

But it's all wrong anyhow. They are bison, not buffalos. So it would be where the bison roam. I don't think I've ever heard the word "bisons."
Why would anyone use the word “bisons”? I just read that both “bison” and “bisons” can be used for the plural form of “bison”.(*Example quoted below) So why waste an extra letter (s) in writing “bisons”? 😉
