The $50 Gold Buffalo coin is the very first coin type issued by the U.S. Government to contain a full ounce of .9999 Pure Gold. The coin features a design that is based on the original 1913 Buffalo nickel. The Buffalo – Indian Head design is truly a coinage classic. In fact, it was dubbed the “most American of all coins,” since it told the story of the American West in its design - a Native American profile appears on the reverse, and an American buffalo appears on the obverse.
Now, the National Collector’s Mint has released its own privately minted collection of the most iconic $50 Buffalo Tribute Proof dates, recreating the intricate details of this popular design. This very desirable 5-piece non-monetary tribute proof set combines the five most important private mintages of the Buffalo Tribute Proof including:
● the 2006 Proof, saluting the very first year the Gold Buffalo was ever struck
● the 2011 Proof, celebrating the 10th Anniversary of the release of the Silver Buffalo Dollar. The Silver Buffalo Dollar was the first time the Buffalo design had been seen on American coinage in 63 years!
● the 2013 Proof, marking 100 years since the first minting of the original Buffalo nickel
● the 2016 Proof, saluting the 10th Anniversary of the first $50 Gold Buffalo tribute Proof, and finally
● the 2021 Proof, celebrating the 20th Anniversary of the modern Buffalo design
Each of these proofs is lavishly clad in 14 mg of 24 KT gold and encapsulated for preservation and protection. Each set is snugly placed in a deluxe collector’s case and accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity attesting to its collectible stature. More importantly, these are highly sought after BACK DATES, which are NO LONGER AVAILABLE to the general public. We’ve assembled this exciting set just for collectors like you.
