2010 $50 Gold Buffalo Proof Coin. Released June 3rd, 2010.

The 2010 $50 Gold Buffalo Proof Coin was released on June 3, 2010 at the price of $1,510.00. The 1 oz .9999 fine gold, 24-karat gold coin marks the 5th year of production and the 2010 Gold Buffalo Proof was expected to have a high amount of sales and so far the sales have been lower than the expectations, many reasons can be attributed to this, one being the price of gold keeps going up and two the 2010 American Gold Eagles have been selling extremely well this year, they had the best year in sales since 1999.

The design remains unchanged for this edition it continues to showcase the design of James Earle Fraser's extremely popular Buffalo Nickel design. The obverse has a portrait of a Native American, said to be a composite of three Indian chiefs. The reverse contains an image of an American buffalo, also known as a bison.

2009 $50 Gold Buffalo Proof Coin. Released October 29, 2009.

The United States Mint released the 2009 American Buffalo Gold Proof Coin on Thursday, October 29. It was the only collector oriented release for 2009 as all w uncirculated and fractional denominations were cut in late 2008. The United States Mint also announced that there will be "no mintage or household order limit for this product." Which came as a surprise but was a welcomed announcement by the gold coin collectors community.

The overall design remains unchanged for all Gold Buffalo Coins since their release in 2006 with both the obverse and reverse of the Gold Buffalo coins share the same basic design that first appeared on the 1913 circulating nickel, commonly known by most as either the "Indian Head Nickel" or the "Buffalo Nickel." This classic coin is considered by many to be one of the most beautiful ever produced by the US Mint and ran until 1938, when it is discontinued in favor of the Thomas Jefferson design. Coins are released with classic designs for higher sales. The obverse shows the image of an Indian leader. The reverse contains an image of an American buffalo, also known as a bison. The coins are struck at the US Mint facility at West Point Mint and bear the "W" mint mark.

The Gold Buffalo Proof were issued at the time for $800 dollars, today the market price is around $1200 to $1350 dollars and going up due to the raising price of gold.

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.

With the Gold Buffalo the U.S. Plans to enter the gold coin market seriously. Thanks to the Presidential $1 coin act passed in 2005, they are able to compete with the gold currency of other nations.

The Gold Buffalo is only sold as a proof version by the U.S. Mint. The coin is tailored to collectors rather than investors, however that does not mean its value does not increase. The initial price of the proof when the Gold Buffalo first shipped was $800 USD. In 2007 the price of the proof rose to $899.95 USD and rose once again in 2008 to $1118.88 USD. The proofs bear a "W" for West Point mint on the obverse side that is absent on the standard bullion coins.

The 2006 Gold Buffalo captures the essence of tradition and excellence. Much like the Buffalo nickel before its time, where it once said "Five cents" , it now reads $50 1oz .9999 fine gold and bears the motto ìIn God We Trustî that has been on all U.S coins since 1908.
