There’s only one coin that can claim to be the first 24-karat gold product from the United States Mint, and it’s the American Gold Buffalo. Introduced in 2006, and celebrating its 10th anniversary in 2016, the American Gold Buffalo coin both the first-ever and only gold coin from the US Mint to feature .9999 pure gold content. Right now, the 2016 1 oz Proof American Gold Buffalo Coin is available as a perfect specimen from JM Bullion.
Coin Highlights:
The 2016 1 oz Proof American Gold Buffalo Coin available to you today in this product listing from JM Bullion has a perfect grade of PF70 from the NGC. This indicates that each coin has its full, original mint luster and bears no detracting flaws of any kind on its surfaces.
As an Early Release coin, these products have to meet certain guidelines to earn that distinction. All 2016 Proof American Gold Buffalo coins available here were shipped by the United States Mint to the NGC or an approved depository, within the first 30 days of the release date as set by the mint itself.
On the obverse of each coin you’ll find the right-profile portrait of a tribal leader, exactly as Fraser created it in 1913 for the Buffalo Nickel. His depiction of a Native American chieftain combined the facial features and characteristics of three real-life tribal elders in the early 20th century.
The reverse of the 2016 1 oz Proof American Gold Buffalo coin has the image of Black Diamond, a resident bison of the Central Park Zoo in New York City at the turn of the 20th century. Fraser’s inspiration for both the obverse and reverse design of the original Buffalo Nickel came from his childhood growing up in Minnesota and exploring the plains of the Upper Midwest with his father.
If you have any questions about these coins, please don’t hesitate to ask a JM Bullion associate. You can reach one of our team members on the phone at 800-276-5608. You can also reach us online using our live web chat and email services.
