Description

Produced at the West Point Mint, the 2006 (W) American Buffalo .9999 Fine Gold Fifty Dollar is part of the American Buffalo Gold 2006 to Date series. The West Point Mint struck 337,012 one-ounce American Buffalo bullion coins dated 2006. The obverse features James Earle Fraser's Native American portrait from the 1913 Buffalo nickel, which Fraser said combined the features of three chiefs, Iron Tail, Two Moons and Big Tree, and the reverse displays his American bison standing on a mound. A modern issue from an era of rotating coin designs, collector-focused programs, and renewed interest in numismatic artistry. Struck in 99.99% gold, weighing 31.11 grams, 32.7 mm in diameter, with a reeded edge. Cataloged as PCGS #9999.
