Description Coin Highlights: Coins ship in individual plastic flips. Contains 1 oz of .9999 pure gold. Bears a face value of $50 (USD) backed by the federal government. Based upon the original Indian Head (or Buffalo) Nickel design. Images created by James Earle Fraser. Introduced in 2006. American Gold Buffalo coins were created by the United States Mint as a means of competing with bullion coins from other sovereign mints struck in 24-karat gold. The official gold bullion coin of the United States, the American Gold Eagle, is popular around the globe, but is produced in 22-karat gold rather than 24-karat gold. James Earle Fraser’s 1913 Indian Head Nickel design was chosen for the obverse and reverse face of the Gold Buffalo program. Fraser was a native of Winona, Minnesota, and grew up on the American frontier in the late 19th century. The images he chose for the nation’s new five-cent piece reflected his vision of the American West. On the obverse face of each coin is the left-profile image of a Native American chieftain, which was created by Fraser by combining the facial features of three real-world tribal leaders. An engraving of “Liberty” and the year of issue are featured on this side. The reverse includes a depiction of Black Diamond, a resident bison at New York City’s Central Park Zoo in the early 20th century. The massive creature dominates the obverse face, with engravings of “United States of America,” “E Pluribus Unum,” “In God We Trust,” and the coin’s weight, purity, metal content, and face value surrounding it.
