The Gold American Buffalo was introduced by the United States Mint in 2006. The coin became the first-ever 24-karat gold coin from the United States Mint and the only one that it would reliably issue on an annual basis. The coin’s designs came directly from the 1913 Buffalo Nickel designed by James Earle Fraser. To honor the latter coin’s 100th anniversary in 2013, the US Mint offered these Reverse Proof Gold American Buffalos.
All of these 2013-W 1 oz Reverse Proof Gold American Buffalos are available in perfect condition. A PF70/PR70 coin has full, original mint luster and bears no detracting flaws of any kind. Please note, these coins come with the potential for varied labels in the slab and either a PCGS or NGC grade.

On the obverse of 2013 Reverse Proof Gold Buffalos is a depiction of a stoic native figure. This right-profile image of an indigenous leader was created using three different tribal figures from the early 20th century as inspiration. The figure is set in right-profile relief with braided hair and feathers woven in near the top of his head.
The reverse side of the 2013-W Reverse Proof Gold American Buffalo comes with an image of the American bison. This design was inspired by the image of Black Diamond, a bison living at the Central Park Zoo in the early 20th century.
