About the American Buffalo Design
The American Buffalo uses the classic artwork created by renowned sculptor James Earle Fraser for the famous 1913 Indian Head Nickel.
The obverse combines the facial features of several Native American chiefs to create one of the most recognisable portraits in American coinage. The reverse features the majestic American Bison, inspired by Black Diamond, a buffalo that lived in New York’s Central Park Zoo during the early 1900s.
