If you hold a magnet near it, it will stick to it. Very common cent as quite a few were minted tha year. Only year the cent was steel due to WW2. </p><p><br /></p><p>The &#039;36 buffalo nickel does have an variety which holds a high premium. The 1936 with the D mintmark had some minted with 3 1/2 legs. If you have this nickel it could be worth a bit but it was pretty rare so most likely you have your average Buffalo nickel. </p><p><br /></p><p>1907 indian head penny might be worth a few bucks as well. </p><p><br /></p><p>The &#039;64 kennedy half is made of 90% silver. Very common coin, i think every collector has at least one or two. It&#039;s worth about $4.50 just in silver alone based on todays $12.85/oz silver price. </p><p><br /></p><p>The 1899 dime has about $0.90 cents worth of silver in it. </p><p><br /></p><p>Hang onto them for a while. WHo knows you might take an interest and start collecting. My grandfather gave me a 1909 lincoln penny and that&#039;s what got me hooked.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
