Product Details

Immerse yourself in the rich tradition and elegance embodied by this exquisite gold piece, the 2016 1 oz Proof Gold Buffalo. As America's first 24-karat gold coin, it captures both the imagination of collectors and the strategic interests of investors. This gold masterpiece, with its high purity of .9999 fine gold, is a tribute to the classic Buffalo Nickel design, originally crafted by sculptor James Earle Fraser. The design resonates with historical significance, reflecting elements of American frontier life with a stoic Native American portrait gracing one side and the iconic buffalo on the reverse. It encapsulates not only the beauty of a bygone era but also the enduring value of gold as a precious metal.

  • One ounce of pure .9999 fine gold
  • Struck at the prestigious West Point Mint
  • Proof condition with stunning mirrored finish
  • Accompanied by an official box and Certificate of Authenticity

The artistry and symbolism of the American Buffalo design are further amplified by the meticulous proof minting process, creating a coin of exceptional clarity and intricate detail. Each year, the West Point Mint produces a limited number of these coins, solidifying their status as valuable collector's items. The reflective sheen of the coin’s background, juxtaposed against its detailed, frosted imagery, highlights the craftsmanship and dedication put into each piece.

From its inception, the Gold Buffalo series has been celebrated not only for its aesthetic appeal but for gold's intrinsic value as a safeguard against economic uncertainty. The historical context of this design dates to the early 20th century, inspired by America’s developmental spirit and the majestic creatures that roamed its plains. The 2016 iteration continues this legacy, offering a blend of tradition and refined minting perfection that stands out in any collection.

What truly elevates this gold coin is its immaculate presentation. Enclosed in its original government packaging, complete with a Certificate of Authenticity, this coin provides assurance of its origins and quality. Such packaging not only enhances the coin’s desirability as a collector's piece but also ensures its condition is preserved over time.
