2001-P Proof Silver American Buffalo $1 Coin Commemorative

Honor one of America’s most enduring symbols with the 2001-P Proof Silver American Buffalo $1 Coin Commemorative. Struck by the United States Mint at the Philadelphia Mint, this commemorative silver dollar is produced in a Proof finish, showcasing mirrored fields and frosted design elements that highlight its classic artwork. Issued with a $1 face value backed by the US government, this coin pays tribute to the American buffalo - an icon of the nation’s frontier heritage.

The American Buffalo Commemorative Silver Dollar was released in 2001 to honor the National Museum of the American Indian, part of the Smithsonian Institution. The design draws inspiration from the legendary 1913 Buffalo Nickel created by sculptor James Earle Fraser, which captured the spirit of the American West and the importance of Native American culture. Proceeds from the coin’s sale helped support the museum’s mission of preserving and celebrating Native American history, making this issue both culturally significant and historically meaningful.
