I'd guess less than a buck for all three.

1936 was a common date. Yours is pretty worn from circualtion - maybe a buck - check sold ebay auctions.

Date restoration the inexpensive way can be done bu a soak in vinegar (this is acetic acid). There will be a slight discoloration. Typically restored nickels by this method have little value.

There is someone out there who restores dates using etching chemicals and sells the rare ones he finds on ebay. But again, restored nickels are obvious and usually considered damaged so they do not command high prices. So even the rare ones this guy sells are nowhere near book value.

Dateless and cull Buffalo nickels wholesale for about 10 cents each. I know a wholesaler that is currently offing 4000 to 100000 dateless Buffalos for retail sale at 14 cents each. There is no shortage.

Full date common Buffalo nickels wholesale around 25 to 30 cents each. They can be bought at most coin shops for less than $1 each.

The vinegar trick for date restoration works well.
