2017 1 oz Gold Buffalo BU
The 2017 American Buffalo coin stands out as a remarkable modern specimen, containing one troy ounce of exceptionally pure 0.9999 fine gold. Backed by the United States government, this sovereign fifty dollar coin represents a continuation of a series that first captured the public imagination when it was introduced in 2006. Interestingly, the 2017 release is notable for potentially having one of the lowest mintage numbers in the entire history of the series, making it a particularly intriguing year for enthusiasts to study. The obverse of the coin displays a powerful, detailed profile portrait of an American Indian. This design is beautifully balanced on the reverse by the image of a massive American bison. The depiction of the bison is widely believed to be modeled after Black Diamond, a famous live specimen from the early twentieth century. Legible inscriptions on the reverse include "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA", "E PLURIBUS UNUM", "IN GOD WE TRUST", and the weight and purity designation "1 OZ. 0.9999 FINE GOLD $50".
