Description
The 2026 Gold Buffalo 1 oz is a one-troy-ounce American gold bullion coin struck by the United States Mint in 0.9999 fine (24-karat) gold, carrying a $50 legal tender face value. First introduced in 2006, the American Gold Buffalo series holds the distinction of being the first 24-karat gold coin ever produced by the U.S. Mint, making each annual release a milestone in American numismatic history. The reverse displays James Earle Fraser's powerful full-body American bison beneath the inscriptions "United States of America," "E Pluribus Unum," "In God We Trust," "1 oz.," "$50," and ".9999 Fine Gold." The obverse presents Fraser's celebrated composite portrait of a Native American chieftain alongside the date 2026 and the word "LIBERTY," faithfully adapting the beloved 1913 Buffalo Nickel design into an iconic gold format. The reeded edge and bold high-relief rendering give the coin a commanding visual depth that has made the Buffalo series a perennial favorite among both gold stackers and numismatic collectors.
