2009-W Proof Gold Buffalo 1 oz FS Bison Label

Description

2009-W Proof Gold Buffalo 1 oz FS Bison Label. This exceptional 2009-W Proof Gold Buffalo represents the pinnacle of modern American bullion coinage artistry. The American Buffalo series, first introduced in 2006, continues the legacy of James Earle Fraser's iconic 1913 design, featuring a majestic American bison on the reverse and a Native American profile on the obverse. This example is struck in one ounce of .9999 fine gold and bears the West Point Mint mark. The specimen has achieved a perfect PCGS PR70 designation (PCGS Certification #414465), indicating flawless striking and preservation. This remarkable grade represents the highest possible numerical designation on the Sheldon scale, reflecting exceptional eye appeal with full original luster and no visible imperfections under standard examination. The "FS" designation and Bison label further authenticate this as a premium example from the early production years of the series. The 2009 production year adds to the desirability of this piece, as the American Buffalo gold proof program has maintained strong collector interest since its inception. Specimens achieving perfect grades at this level are increasingly difficult to locate, making this an outstanding opportunity for advanced collectors seeking premium-quality modern gold bullion coins.
