Obverse

An indigenous American Indian with a stoic look on his face and braided hair, adorned with feathers, is featured on the obverse of the 2013-W Reverse Proof Gold Buffalo Coin in right-profile relief.

Reverse

In contrast, the reverse visuals of the 2013-W 1 oz Reverse Proof American Buffalo Coins celebrate the strength and might of the American bison, shown in left-profile relief with its head down while standing on a small mound of dirt.

History

Fraser’s works can be found in many public spaces throughout the United States, including the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, D.C., and the Brooklyn Museum. His influence can also be seen in the work of other American sculptors, such as Gutzon Borglum, who created the Mount Rushmore National Memorial.
