About the American Gold Buffalo Series
Introduced in 2006, the American Gold Buffalo was the U.S. Mint’s first 24-karat gold coin, minted in .9999 fine gold. This landmark series was developed as a high-purity alternative to the American Gold Eagle, while also paying tribute to classic American coinage. Renowned for its purity, craftsmanship, and timeless design, the Gold Buffalo has earned a strong following among collectors and investors alike.
The coin’s design is based on James Earle Fraser’s iconic 1913 Buffalo Nickel, celebrating America’s cultural heritage and artistic legacy. While the series typically features only the 1 oz coin, the 2008 release is unique as the only year the U.S. Mint produced fractional denominations, adding to its rarity and appeal.
