2006 Gold Buffalo Proof Coin Design
The 2006 Gold Buffalo Proof Coin is almost a replica of the 1913 Buffalo Nickel designed by the widely known sculptor James Earle Fraser.The face side of the Gold Buffalo coin features an American Indian chief and the word "Liberty" and the mint mark for the year. The back side design is the same American bison standing on a mound of dirt, which many people believe is based on Black Diamond, a real-life buffalo of the New York Bronx Zoo back then.
