0.25 oz American Buffalo

Description

This ¼ oz. coin is truly rare because it marks the only year in the coin’s production history that includes fractional weights. The ¼ oz. had an extremely low mintage of just 9,949 coins.

The US Mint is part of the US Department of the Treasury, thus gold Buffalo coins are guaranteed by the U.S. government to contain the stated amount of gold weight in troy ounces

The obverse of the coin features a portrait of a Native American designed by sculptor James Earle Fraser adapted from the 1913 Buffalo Nickel coin, with the words ‘LIBERTY’ to the upper right..
