Product Details
The 2013-W American Buffalo 1 oz Gold Reverse Proof Coin is a masterful tribute marking the 100th anniversary of James Earle Fraser's iconic 1913 Buffalo Nickel design. Struck in one troy ounce of .9999 fine 24-karat gold at the West Point Mint, this special centennial commemorative was the first and only time the United States Mint ever issued a Reverse Proof American Gold Buffalo. It features a unique finish with mirror-like raised design details set against deeply frosted background fields, making it an essential centerpiece for collectors of classic and modern American numismatics. This item comes complete with its original government packaging, including the presentation box and official Certificate of Authenticity (COA).
