2009-W 1 oz Proof Gold Buffalo (w/Box & COA)
The 2009 West Point Proof Gold Buffalo stands as a remarkable example of modern American coinage, struck in one troy ounce of exceptionally pure 0.9999 fine gold. Backed by the United States government, this fifty-dollar denomination coin showcases a highly polished proof finish that highlights the intricate details of its historic artwork. On the obverse, the coin features a powerful profile of an American Indian, a design originally created by James Earle Fraser for the classic Buffalo Nickel. The word LIBERTY is inscribed along the upper right edge, accompanied by the year 2009 and the W mint mark, which signifies its origin at the West Point Mint. The reverse displays a magnificent American buffalo, modeled after the famous bison named Black Diamond. This side bears the inscriptions UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, E PLURIBUS UNUM, and IN GOD WE TRUST. The technical specifications are also clearly marked along the bottom, reading 1OZ. 0.9999 FINE GOLD and the face value of $50.
