Produced as a result of the Presidential Coin Act of 2005, the Gold American Buffalo coin was the first pure 24-karat gold bullion coin produced by the US Mint. Unlike previous US gold coins, which are traditionally 22-karats or .9167 fine, the American Buffalo stands alone as the only one-ounce, pure .9999 fine gold bullion coin produced in the rich history of the mint. With the first minting in 2006, over 300,000 American Buffalo gold coins were produced and sold that year.
With images originally featured on the “Indian Head” or “Buffalo” nickel, minted in the United States from 1913 -1938, the gold American Buffalo bullion coin showcases a profile of a Native American man on the obverse side, and the image of an American bison on the reverse side. These iconic images were originally created by American sculptor James Earle Fraser, a student of Augustus Saint-Gaudens, making the American Buffalo one of the most striking and beautiful coins ever created by the United States Mint.
