American Buffalo Gold Coins are Modeled After the Famous Buffalo Nickel

Native American (obverse) - The obverse shows the well-known Indian Head symbol. Fraser said that he combined a total of three Indian chiefs to create the image. Iron Tail, Two Moons and Big Tree were the three chiefs Fraser used. Fraser was never 100% sure whether or not he actually used the three, but the coin is an absolute masterpiece nevertheless.

American Bison (reverse) - The reverse features the classic buffalo design as well as inscriptions of the gold buffalos value, weight, and gold content. The history behind the image is as intriguing as the coin itself. An American buffalo named Black Diamond of the Central Park Zoo was said to be the particular animal used for the coin. Conflicting accounts suggest that a popular Bronx Zoo bison named Bronx was used.
