Upon the Gold American Buffalo’s initial release in 2006, investors flocked to stores to purchase them for their collections. This is due to the fact that the Gold Buffalo was the very first pure 24-karat gold coin to be produced by the US Mint for the public. This notably contrasts with the USA’s official Bullion Coin, the Gold American Eagle, which only contains .9167 fine gold (around 22 karats). These Gold Buffalo coins were originally struck to compete with foreign 24K gold coins taking the world by storm, and maintain their status as an extraordinarily popular gold coin in the present day. Despite being called the “Gold American Buffalo”, this coin actually features the American Bison, commonly referred to as the American Buffalo in both the US and Canada. This misnomer’s widespread usage led to it becoming the accepted term for these animals indigenous to the North American continent.
