DESIGN

The reverse of each coin depicts an American Buffalo, standing on a grassy plain. This depiction was reportedly inspired by Black Diamond, a 1,550 pound buffalo who lived in the Central Park Zoo during the 1910s. The reverse also includes the inscriptions “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA”, “E PLURIBUS UNUM” at the top and “IN GOD WE TRUST”, the monetary denomination, weight and fineness at the bottom.

The obverse of the American Gold Buffalo coin depicts the image inspired by James Earle Fraser’s 1913 Buffalo nickel design. A stoic Native American man gazes to the right, showcasing his braids and feathered headdress. Three tribal chiefs, each from a different tribe, posed for Fraser, who drew inspiration from all of their features. Features the inscription “LIBERTY” to the top right of the coin as well as the 2022 year date and the initial “F”.

ABOUT THE UNITED STATES MINT

The United States Mint is a bureau of the Department of the Treasury responsible for producing coinage for the United States to conduct its trade and commerce, as well as controlling the movement of bullion. The first United States Mint was created in Philadelphia in 1792, and soon joined by other centers, whose coins were identified by their own mint marks. There are currently four active coin-producing mints: Philadelphia, Denver, San Francisco, and West Point. We carry a large selection of both bullion and numismatic coins from The US Mint.
