Obverse

The obverse of the 2018 1 oz American Gold Buffalo Coin proudly features the right-profile portrait of the tribal leader. Fraser reputedly merged facial features from three distinct American Indian leaders. Inscriptions include 2018, F, and LIBERTY.

Reverse

On the reverse, all American Gold Buffalo coins display the left-side image of a bison, standing on a mound of dirt and grass. The bison’s origins trace back to Black Diamond, a notable resident bison of the Central Park Zoo. Inscriptions read UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, IN GOD WE TRUST, E PLURIBUS UNUM, $50, and 1 OZ .9999 FINE GOLD.

History

The Buffalo Nickel coins showcased a portrait of an American Indian leader on one side and the commanding image of an American bison on the other. Frasers Buffalo Nickel, authorized by President William Howard Tafts administration, circulated from 1913 to 1938.

Harkening back to the golden age of American coining in the early 20th century, the American Gold Buffalo coin draws inspiration from former circulation coin designs, following in the footsteps of the esteemed American Eagle Series. James Earle Frasers Buffalo Nickel design eloquently captures the essence of the plains and prairies of the Upper Midwest.
