American Gold Buffalo History 

The American Gold Buffalo was first offered for sale by the United States Mint on June 22, 2006. The American Gold Buffalo, also known as a gold buffalo, is a 24-karat bullion coin whose design is modeled after the popular Indian Head nickel.

Its nickname stems from the American Bison on the reverse side of the coin. The coin marks the first time ever that the United States Government minted pure (.9999) 24-karat gold coins for the public.

In regards to its design, the Native American depiction on the coin’s obverse is thought to be a compilation of three men. Before his death, James Earle Fraser, the designer of the Indian Head Nickel, said he created the depiction as a mixture of the features of three chiefs from different American Indian tribes, Big Tree, Iron Tail, and Two Moons, who posed as models for him to sketch.
Experts believe that the bison on the coin’s reverse was modeled after Black Diamond, an American Bison (of buffalo) who lived in New York City Central Park Zoo during the 1910s. The coin also possesses the words E PLURIBUS UNUM above the buffalo’s lower back and UNITED STATES OF AMERICA along the top.

The future value of the coins you purchase cannot be predicted. You could lose money. Prices may rise and fall over time or rapidly. Past performance of any coin does not guarantee future results. All decisions regarding the purchase or sale of precious metals, including the decision of which precious metals to purchase or sell, are the customer's decision alone.

Any opinions or advice offered by Augusta or through its attorneys regarding legal, tax, or investment issues are Augusta's opinions and not to be relied on by anyone for any purpose. Seek your own legal, tax, investment, and financial advice before opening an account with Augusta. Since Augusta’s content may contain errors and Augusta is not qualified to offer legal, tax, or investment advice, you should not base investment decisions solely on the content Augusta provides. The Augusta Depository Gold IRA (or silver) is a self-directed IRA containing physical precious metals delivered to a secure non-government depository storage facility and administered by a third-party custodian. Investors can make an appointment to see their metals at the depository, which could be far from investors’ homes. The Augusta Home Delivery Gold IRA (or silver) is a self-directed physical precious metals IRA delivered to investors’ homes. Some choose to store IRS-approved American Eagle coins in an IRA in their homes. Others choose to store home-delivered metals in a safe deposit box at a U.S. bank. Before purchasing from Augusta and deciding where to store precious metals in an Augusta IRA account, investors should seek guidance solely from their own legal, tax, and investment advisors. If investors sidestep IRS rules or mishandle precious metals in a Home Delivery Gold IRA (e.g., setting up the IRA improperly, engaging in a prohibited transaction, such as withdrawing metals before retirement to use for any other purpose, etc.) or if it is determined that home delivery or home or bank safe deposit box storage are not permitted by the IRS, investors could lose their tax-exempt status and be required to pay taxes and penalties. Although the IRS has not issued clear guidance on the legality of IRA home delivery or IRA home or bank safe deposit box storage, the IRS may, at any time, audit an IRA, declare home or bank safe deposit box storage does not satisfy IRS requirements, and impose taxes and penalties on the IRA owner. Augusta and its attorneys all believe it is financially less risky for you to store all IRA precious metals, at a minimum, in a bank safe deposit box in the name of the LLC. The price of precious metals fluctuates over time and investors might lose money. Don't invest in Augusta products with money you can't afford to lose. As with any investment, past performance may not predict future returns.
