About the American Gold Buffalo

The American Gold Buffalo made its debut in 2006, marking a special milestone as the first .9999 fine gold bullion coin from the U.S. Mint. This came about thanks to the American Buffalo Coin Act, honoring the classic designs of early 20th-century American coinage.

Each coin contains a full ounce of 24-karat gold, and it carries a $50 face value guaranteed by the U.S. government—talk about combining beauty and backing!

Design and Features

The coin’s obverse showcases a fresh take on James Earle Fraser’s famous "Buffalo Nickel" design, featuring an American Indian in profile with the word “Liberty” inscribed. It’s a nod to the rich heritage of our nation’s coins, originally minted back in 1913.

Turn it over and you’ll see the powerful image of an American Buffalo, symbolizing strength and resilience—both traits that make this coin a prized possession.
