A Tribute to an American Classic
The Buffalo Round pays homage to one of the most iconic coin designs in U.S. history — James Earle Fraser’s Indian Head Nickel, first issued in 1913. Fraser’s artwork captured the rugged strength and spirit of early 20th-century America, honoring both its Indigenous heritage and its untamed frontier.
The design remains one of the most admired in American numismatics, making this 5 oz copper version a bold, affordable tribute to the nation’s legacy in coin artistry.
Design Details
Obverse:
Features Fraser’s classic Native American portrait, composed of a blend of three real-life tribal chiefs. The design symbolizes the resilience, dignity, and deep cultural heritage of America’s first peoples. Detailed texturing and lifelike engraving bring the image to life in warm copper tones.
Reverse:
Displays the majestic American bison, often believed to have been modeled after “Black Diamond,” a buffalo that lived at New York’s Central Park Zoo in the early 1900s. The design embodies the rugged independence and strength of the American frontier. Each line and contour is sharply struck, offering exceptional depth and clarity on this large-format 5 oz round.
