In 1913, James Earle Fraser introduced fresh designs for the US nickel. These iconic designs remained in use until 1938, known as the Buffalo Nickel or Indian Nickel. In 2006, they made a historic return as the first-ever 24-karat American gold coin.

Obverse

On the obverse side of the 2023-W 1 oz Proof Gold Buffalo, you’ll find an exquisite depiction of an indigenous figure. Fraser skillfully crafted this design by combining facial features from three prominent tribal elders in 20th-century America.

Reverse

The reverse side of the 2023-W Proof American Gold Buffalo showcases Fraser’s iconic image of the American bison. As the largest land mammal in North America, the bison stands in left-profile relief on a mound of earth and grass.

History

James Earle Fraser’s design for the 1913 Buffalo Nickel replaced the Liberty Nickel and is widely celebrated as the finest design ever featured on the US nickel. It was one of the earliest American currency pieces to feature indigenous figures in its design and themes, prominently featuring the American bison on the reverse.
