2019 Gold Buffalo Coins
Buffalo coins have a face value of $50, but the Gold bullion content has a value that is much higher. Even though these coins are considered legal tender, they are rarely, if ever, used as currency. The only .9999 fine Gold coins planned from the U.S. Mint in 2019, investors and collectors alike can appreciate the beauty and value. This coin is also the standard-bearer of the famous Buffalo Nickel, as they both feature Black Diamond, the New York Central Park Zoo’s famous American Bison who captured the imaginations of the entire country.U.S. 1 oz Gold Buffalo
The famous Indian Head nickel inspired the obverse design, but it was the bison on the reverse that brought these coins to popularity. Created by James Earle Fraser, the American Buffalo reverse artwork is considered by many to be among the best of any issued U.S. coin. The phrase, “E Pluribus Unum,” appears on this coin just as it did on the original nickel, and translates as, “out of many, one.” The Native American chief depicted on the obverse is an amalgamation of features from leaders of three American Indian tribes: Two Moons, Iron Tail and Big Tree. These men posed as models for the artist's sketches.The 1 oz Gold Buffalo was the first .9999 fine Gold coin ever authorized by the U.S. Mint.
