    leave it in

    you can get all of those buffalo nickels you want on the buy, sell, trade here. in that condition they will be cheap.

    it is best enjoyed encased so you do not damage it further.

    1943-S quarter is 90% silver

    nickel is worth a nickel.

    That is PMD...Post Mint Damage... on that nickel... could be done by a drill, or punch...not worth anything.... Leave the 1920 nickel in the holder... to damaged to be worth anything.... You can buy Buffalo nickels like that in batches on ebay very cheap. Cheers, RickO

    Nice encased buffalo, definitely more interesting as is. Leave it be.
    The quarter is a pre-1964 90% silver Washington. Worth around $3 in metal
    The nickel is post mint damage as has been stated by others.
    Not a bad score to find. Do some research on the history of these coins, and hopefully it will spark interest in this great hobby. Welcome aboard!

    That's no longer a coin. It has been turned into a piece of jewelry. The value lies in the coin holder, if it is actually gold.

    I had the same type of keychain as the one you have a Buffalo nickel in. Mine was obtained in the 1980s and I used the keychain for probably 15-years before the nickel fell out.
