It is not uncommon to find some of the most iconic image from American coinage history appearing on modern commemorative bullion and round programs. The United States Mint, for example, continues to use a number of iconic designs on modern programs. SilverTowne Mint, a private facility in Indiana, does the same thing with the Buffalo Nickel design. Right now, the 2017 1 oz SilverTowne Silver Buffalo Round is available to purchase online at Silver.com.

Round Highlights:

  • Ships to you in a protective plastic flip, tubes of 20, or boxes of 500.
  • Based upon the Buffalo Nickel design!
  • Consists of One Troy ounce of .999 fine silver.
  • Obverse features Fraser’s Native American tribal leader.
  • Reverse depicts Black Diamond.
  • Produced at a private mint in the United States.

One of the most beloved coin designs from American history didn’t originate on a proof coin, but instead, on the humble five-cent circulation coin. James Earle Fraser’s 1913 design for the US nickel became known as the Buffalo Nickel, and has been replicated on countless products since.

James Earle Fraser was commissioned by the Taft Administration in 1912 to redesign the nation’s five-cent piece, replacing the previous design which had been in use since the mid-1890s. Fraser, who grew up on the plains, used his background for inspiration in designing the new nickel.

Fraser chose a bison for the obverse face of the coin, and a Native American chieftain for the reverse of the original nickel. His new design was used from 1913 to 1938. Today, it appears on the Gold American Buffalo coin from the US Mint, among other private mint offerings as well.

On the obverse of these 2017 1 oz SilverTowne Silver Buffalo Rounds you’ll find the image of a Native American tribal member. Captured in right-profile relief, Fraser is said to have used the facial features of three different leaders of the early 20th century to create the image used on the Buffalo Nickel.

The reverse of the SilverTowne Silver Buffalo Round includes a depiction of Black Diamond. The bison that inspired Fraser’s design was a resident of the Central Park Zoo in New York City in the early 20th century, and is featured on the reverse of these rounds with all original engravings aside from the face value.

SilverTowne Mint is a private facility that was founded in rural Winchester, Indiana in 1949. Today it is one of the largest private facilities in the United States.

Is my information secure?

We take data security very seriously. When you place an order with silver.com, your information is transmitted with the utmost SSL (secure socket layers) 256-bit protection. We also never have access to your credit/debit card details, as they are securely communicated directly to the payment processor (Authorize.net) and never retained by Silver.com. For this reason, we also don't process credit/debit card orders over the phone, as it is the least secure way to process those transactions.

In addition, all VISA and MasterCard orders undergo an additional step of user authentication - the respective Verified by VISA or MasterCard SecureCode programs. Upon completing checkout with a VISA or MasterCard credit/debit card, you may be promoted for additional details to confirm your identity and protect our customers against credit card fraud.

Finally, the data we do retain in our system, including but not limited to name, address, phone number, and order history, is never shared with or sold to any unrelated third-parties. Please review our Privacy Policy for full details on our data security measures.

Please note, the Silver.com website accepts orders 24/7/365, so you can always lock in live product prices and make purchases outside of business hours.

Do you charge sales tax?

We are required to collect sales tax in certain states. You can review your states sales tax policy here: https://www.silver.com/taxes. You should always consult with a tax adviser for specific advice in your area.

Where does your spot price come from?

We use a live, up-to-the-second spot price feed supplied by Xignite.com, a worldwide leader in the data supply market.

Are your products actually in stock?

Yes. We are one of the few bullion dealers in the industry who only deems products "in stock" when we have them on-hand and ready to ship immediately. In the instance of a presale item, we denote that the product is on presale and the estimated shipping date. While we make the best efforts to hit presale dates, the dates are only estimates, given we cannot control mint production issues and/or carrier dealyes.

Why are multiple prices listed?

We offer a 4% discount to "cash" paying customers - with paper check, bank wire, and bitcoin payments being defined as cash. On many products, we are also able to offer volume discounts to customers purchasing large quantities of the same item. All volume pricing is laid out in the chart on the product's description page, as well as in the cart.

When do I lock in my price?

All prices are locked in at the time of purchase. Credit/debit card, PayPal, BitCoin, Ethereum, and Ripple orders are paid at the time of checkout, while paper check and bank wire orders require a credit/debit card on file to lock in your pricing while we await your payment. Please note, paper check and bank wire orders will NOT result in a charge to your card - we simple maintain the card on file while we await full payment by your selected payment method.

Do you ship internationally?

We currently only ship to addresses in the United States, including APOs.
