In 2008, the United States Mint released Proof American Gold Buffalos for just the third time in the program’s history. Proof Gold Buffalos offer frosted designs with mirrored background fields, and the Proof Gold Buffalo has been available annually alongside its investment-grade BU Gold Buffalo. Now, 2008 1 oz Proof American Gold Buffalo Coins are available for purchase online from JM Bullion.
Coin Highlights:
The designs of the American Gold Buffalo are inspired by James Earle Fraser’s 1913 design for the Buffalo Nickel and reflect the history of the American West. The coins include a depiction of an indigenous figure and an American bison.
Bison are often regarded as sacred animals in indigenous cultures. They symbolize strength, abundance, and resilience. Many tribes incorporate the bison into their creation stories and ceremonies, considering them as gifts from the Creator.
In the obverse design of 2008 1 oz Proof Gold Buffalo Coins, you’ll find a right-profile effigy of an indigenous figure. This individual is shown with a stoic look on his face and is a composite effigy that includes the facial features and characteristics of three different indigenous figures from 20th-century America.
For the reverse side of 2008 Proof American Gold Buffalos, Fraser created an image of the American bison. This Plains bison is inspired by Black Diamond, a bison that resided at the Central Park Zoo in New York City in the early 20th century.
These 2008 1 oz Proof American Gold Buffalo Coins are available with plastic capsules. The coin and capsule come with a US Mint presentation box and a Certificate of Authenticity.
