American Buffalo Gold Coins
The American Buffalo gold coin is one of the most popular modern gold coins from the United States Mint. In 2006, the U.S. Government approved the first minting of a 24-karat gold legal tender coin under the Presidential $1 Coin Act. The Gold American Buffalo is named after James Earle Fraser’s popular 1913 Buffalo Nickel, also known as the Indian Head Nickel, one of the most iconic and popular designs from the U.S. Mint.
