Shop Certified American Gold Buffalo Coins at LCR Coin

The American Gold Buffalo is one of the most iconic modern gold coins produced by the United States Mint. First introduced in 2006, it was the Mint’s first gold coin struck in .9999 fine (24-karat) gold, combining exceptional purity with a timeless American design.

Inspired by classic American coinage, the American Gold Buffalo features artwork by James Earle Fraser, originally created for the historic Buffalo Nickel. The obverse depicts a powerful Native American profile, while the reverse showcases the majestic American Buffalo—imagery that has become synonymous with American heritage and artistry.

Collectors value American Gold Buffalos for their high gold purity, enduring design, and strong recognition within modern U.S. numismatics. The series includes both Mint State and Proof issues, offering options for collectors who appreciate classic business-strike coins as well as those who seek the enhanced finishes of proof coinage.
