2021-W 1 oz $50 Proof Gold American Buffalo NGC PF 70 UCAM (Edmund C. Moy)
The 2021-W 1 oz $50 Proof Gold American Buffalo, certified PF 70 Ultra Cameo (UCAM) by NGC and hand-signed by former U.S. Mint Director Edmund C. Moy, represents the pinnacle of American coinage artistry and quality. Struck at the West Point Mint from 1 troy ounce of .9999 fine (24-karat) gold, this flawless proof coin showcases a mirror-like finish with frosted design details, achieving the highest possible grade.
Introduced in 2006, the American Buffalo Gold Coin was the first 24-karat gold coin ever issued by the United States Mint. Its design revives James Earle Fraser’s legendary imagery from the 1913 Buffalo Nickel — an homage to the strength and spirit of the American frontier. The obverse features the bold profile of a Native American chief, while the reverse displays a majestic American bison standing on a mound, accompanied by the inscriptions “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,” “E PLURIBUS UNUM,” “IN GOD WE TRUST,” and “$50 1 OZ. .9999 FINE GOLD.” The “W” mintmark denotes its origin at the West Point facility, where only limited quantities of proof versions are meticulously produced
