The silver American Buffalo belongs to the top of American investment coins. However , these investment coins are not produced by the US Mint, but by private mints. For that reason, they have no official connection to the Indian Head nickel or the American gold Buffalo. But the coins are inspired by the design of the Indian Head Nickel coins.
The silver Buffalo coin is minted in 1 troy ounce (31.103 grams) of pure silver. This coin was created in the United States. The silver American Buffalo coin is especially common in America. This is because these coins have a lower premium than the standard silver investment coins in America. In Europe, this coin is considerably less common due to the higher premium.
The design of the silver American Buffalo coin is based on an earlier 1913 design by American artist James Earle Fraser's for the "Indian Head Nickel" or "Buffalo Nickel".
