1 oz Proof American Gold Buffalo Coin

America's very first 24 karat gold coin was the American Gold Buffalo Coin. This comes contrary to what most people think the first coin was, including 1986’s American Gold Eagle or the previously circulated coins with 1794 to 1933 mints. The American Gold Buffalo, since 2006, is available from the United States mint each year as one of two major gold bullion coins.

Highlights of this coin include the following:
• Backed by the United States federal government, a face value of $50 USD.
• Contains one Troy ounce of .9999 pure gold.
• A depiction of the American bison unadorned is on the reverse side of this coin.
• The stoic Native American appears on the coin’s obverse side.
