Known in the United States as the buffalo, the American bison is the largest land mammal on the North American continent and has played a pivotal role in the history of cultures in this region of the world. Bison were a primary source of meat and materials to indigenous tribes, but were also revered within the mythology and religion of these tribes. Today, the bison remains a symbol of the power and majesty of North Americas wild landscape. 1 oz Copper Bison Bars are now available to you for purchase online from Provident Metals.

Obverse

On the obverse of Copper Bison Bars is a depiction of a massive American bison. The large buffalo is captured in great detail with a shaggy mane, large hump, and massive head. The figure is shown on a small patch of grass within a circular portrait field. The inscriptions on this field of the coin read COPPER, .999 FINE, and ONE AVDP OZ.

History

The American bison has featured on countless forms of American currency, from the 1901 $10 Bison Legal Tender Note to the 1913 Buffalo Nickel. Today, you will find the bison on the reverse of the American Buffalo Gold Coin, a bullion piece replicating the designs of the historic Buffalo Nickel.
