Obverse

The obverse of all Proof American Gold Buffalo Coins features a profile of a Native American tribal figure, designed in 1913 by James Earle Fraser. This right-profile portrait amalgamates features from three real-life native leaders of the early 20th century, echoing the design of the Buffalo Nickel.

Reverse

The reverse of the 1 oz Proof American Gold Buffalo Coin showcases the magnificent American bison. Symbolic of American Plains tribes, the buffalo holds the status of the largest land mammal in North America. This design takes inspiration from Black Diamond, a renowned bison from the early 20th century at the Central Park Zoo in New York City.

History

In 2008, the release of the Proof American Gold Buffalo Coin introduced four weights: 1/2 oz, 1/4 oz, and 1/10 oz, alongside the 1 oz option. However, this diversity was unique to that year alone. The inaugural 2006 issue saw the highest mintage of 246,267 coins, while the lowest was 16,591 coins in 2015.
