American Buffalo Gold Bullion Coins
American Buffalo Gold Coins: What Are They?
The American Gold Buffalo can be described as being to the American Eagle what the Britannia is to the Sovereign. More specifically, this fine gold 24ct coin deals in even troy ounce gold content, unlike the American Eagle which holds less purity due to its 22ct composition.
The United States introduced the American Buffalo to its bullion offering in 2006. This was in response to a general shift in preference among investors to 24ct gold bullion such as the Canadian Maple. This was especially the case in India, where gold is a very common investment.
So, to improve the adoption of American gold, a series was struck which began with a coin holding a round, full troy ounce of gold with now-collectable fractional denominations featuring in 2008 only.
The Gold Buffalo, despite its name, depicts an American bison on its reverse side. This is joined by a Native American male profile on the obverse, a profound design adapted from the 1913 'Indian Head Nickel'.
On the bullion market, the American Buffalo is easy to value against its troy ounce gold content and is therefore a popular choice both in The United States and beyond.
