Gold Buffalo 1oz

The American Buffalo, also known as a gold buffalo, is a 24 karat bullion coin first offered for sale by the United States Mint in 2006. The coin follows the design of the Indian Head nickel and sports an American Bison on the reverse side of the design.

This was the first time ever that the United States Government has minted pure (.9999) 24 karat gold coins for for general availability. The coin has a legal tender (face) value of US$50. Due to a combination of the coin's popularity and the tremendous increase in the price of gold since its creation the coin's value has increased considerably in a short time of just a few years.
