Product Description

Authorized by the Presidential Coin Act in 2005, the American Buffalo Gold Coin is the first ever pure 24-karat gold bullion coin struck by the United States Mint.

As an investment of gold, the American Buffalo demonstrates the unique beauty of the American West, and is one of the most popular of the nation’s mintage – a clear frontrunner for wise investors who buy bullion gold coins.

American Buffalo Gold Coin Design and Composition
Modified from the original five-cent “Indian Head” or “Buffalo Nickel” as designed by James Earle Fraser in the early 1900s, the obverse of the coin bears the image of a Native American man’s profile while the reverse depicts a standing bison’s silhouette, which Fraser quietly sketched in New York’s Central Park under the sidelong gaze of one of the great creatures. Its content fixed at one Troy ounce of .9999 pure gold, the American Buffalo Gold Coin was later updated with the face value of $50.

Investment of Gold American Buffalo Coins: Significantly Increased Value

Widely sought after for those who buy gold as an investment, the American Buffalo Gold Coin’s value has significantly increased since its first mintage and is secured by the Unites States Government for content and purity. Indeed, during the sub-prime mortgage collapse of 2008, the United States Mint even had to halt sales as they could not keep up with the demand of buyers who sought after gold coins as investment alternatives and flocked to the American Buffalo in droves.

The American Buffalo Gold Coin: a beautiful piece of Americana and a top choice for investors who buy bullion gold coins.
