First released by the U.S. Mint in 2006, the Gold Buffalo series was the first of its kind produced from .9999 fine gold, mirroring the purity standards of beloved bullion coins worldwide. This coin, minted in West Point and bearing the prestigious "W" mint mark, represents the peak of American mint craftsmanship. The reverse proof version, especially from a notable year like 2013, gives it a special place in any serious collection.

The historical context of the Gold Buffalo stems from the original Buffalo Nickel design by James Earle Fraser in 1913. Fraser’s work, which had graced the 5-cent piece until 1938, represents the American West in both its cultural grandeur and rugged nature. Collectors value the Buffalo Gold series not only for the beauty of its high relief designs but also for the meaning they carry, which truly set these coins apart on the global stage.

This delightful piece comes in its original mint packaging, complete with a box and certificate of authenticity, ensuring its pristine condition and affirming its value.
