American Buffalo - Market Value
Each American Buffalo price is based on the current market “spot price” plus a premium per coin. The spot price of gold (and all precious metals) is reported every business day in all major newspapers, network television and radio and online.
The American Buffalo Coin Design
The 1913-1938 “Indian Head” nickel, with the buffalo reverse, is an essential bit of American nostalgia and history. Designed by the American master sculptor James Earle Fraser, it is just one of many enduring images he created. So popular is the Fraser “Indian Head” nickel that, prior to its selection as the U.S. Mint’s purest gold bullion coin, it was released by the U.S. Mint as a $1 uncirculated and proof silver coin in 2001.
Three men — Chief Iron Tail, Chief Big Tree and Chief Two Moons — sat for Fraser as he designed the buffalo coin. The buffalo used by Fraser was a denizen of New York City’s Central Park Zoo.
