When you’re looking to buy 1 oz gold that features .9999 purity from the United States Mint, your choice is the Gold American Buffalo. America’s first-ever 24-karat gold coin, the Gold American Buffalo revives the design from the Buffalo Nickel of the 20th century for annual reproduction on a gold bullion coin. Today, 2018 1 oz Gold American Buffalo Coins are available to you online at Silver.com.

Coin Highlights:

  • Ships to you sealed in individual plastic or within mint tubes of 20 coins!
  • Thirteenth release of the Gold American Buffalo coin!
  • Consists of One Troy ounce of .9999 fine gold in BU condition.
  • Face value of $50 (USD) is fully backed by the US government.
  • Obverse bears the left-profile portrait of an American Indian leader.
  • Reverse includes a depiction of Black Diamond, an American bison.
  • Designed originally by James Earle Fraser in 1913!

The Gold American Buffalo coin was first released in 2006 and is regularly available in both bullion and proof versions. Occasionally the US Mint has struck different versions of the coin, such as a 2013 Reverse Proof on the 100th anniversary of the Buffalo Nickel design and a 2008 uncirculated coin that was offered in fractional weights of ½ oz, ¼ oz, 1/10 oz.

In terms of mintage, the Gold American Buffalo is roughly on par with the fractional-weights each year in the Gold American Eagle series. The highest mintage in the series’ history came in the first year, with 337,012 coins struck and sold in 2006. The lowest mintage figure came in 2012 at just 100,000 coins, but recent years have seen mintage rising again with a total of 219,500 sold in 2016.

All 2018 1 oz Gold American Buffalo Coins in this listing are in BU condition. Coins in BU condition show no signs of wear and tear, but are not perfect specimens either. Coins in this condition can feature minor production flaws ranging from breaks in the luster and spotted surfaces to contact marks.

The obverse of all Gold American Buffalo Coins features the right-profile portrait of an American Indian tribal leader. The man’s figure is weathered and shows the passage of time. Engravings include the word “Liberty,” an “F” for Fraser’s last name initial, and the year of issue on the coin.

On the reverse of all 2018 1 oz Gold American Buffalo Coins is the image of Black Diamond. An American bison housed at the Central Park Zoo in New York City during the early 20th century. The designs on both sides of the Gold American Buffalo coin originally appeared on the Buffalo Nickel from 1913 to 1938.

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 feel welcome to call us toll free at 1(888) 989-7223 or use our Live Chat feature during normal business hours Monday through Friday, 08:00 a.m. to 06:00 p.m. CST. Alternatively, you can email us at help@silver.com and expect a response within 1 business day.

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.
