Description

The 2001 (D) Buffalo Dollar is a dollar minted at the Denver Mint, within the Modern Commemorative Dollars (1982-Date) series. The U.S. Mint produced 227,131 examples, making this the lower-mintage of the two mint variants. The obverse features designs varying by commemorative issue, authorized by Congress to honor significant American events, people, and institutions and the reverse displays designs varying by commemorative issue. A modern issue from an era of rotating coin designs, collector-focused programs, and renewed interest in numismatic artistry. Denver's mint evolved from a frontier assay office into one of the nation's primary coin production facilities, opening in 1906. Auction record: $1,783 MS70 09-16-2003 Heritage Auctions.
