The Buffalo Nickel or Indian Head Nickel, designed by James Earle Fraser was minted by the United States Mint  from 1913-1938. It replaced the Liberty Head Nickel designed by Charles E. Barber. The obverse of the nickel features a profile image of a Native American. The top right of the obverse features the word, "Liberty." Normally the date would be featured on the obverse as well but on these coins the date has been completely worn off. The reverse features an American Bison. At the top the words, "United States of America," can be seen. Just above the bison the words, "E Pluribus Unum," can be seen which means out of many, one. At the bottom of the reverse the words, " Five Cents," can be seen.
