Description

2016-W Proof Gold Buffalo 1 oz, NGC PF70 Ultra Cameo. This exceptional 2016-W Proof American Gold Buffalo represents the pinnacle of modern United States bullion coinage artistry. Struck at the West Point Mint and graded NGC PF70 Ultra Cameo (Certificate #593786), this one-ounce gold proof displays the characteristic deep mirror fields and frosted design elements that define the series at its finest. The American Gold Buffalo, first introduced in 2006, continues the legacy of the iconic Buffalo nickel design by James Earle Fraser. The obverse features a Native American profile, while the reverse showcases the powerful American buffalo, both rendered with exceptional detail and relief. As a PF70 example with Ultra Cameo designation, this coin exhibits flawless surfaces and the dramatic contrast between mirrored fields and frosted devices that collectors seek. West Point Mint proofs are particularly coveted within the series, and this specimen's perfect technical grade reflects superior striking and handling throughout the minting and certification process. Whether for the dedicated Gold Buffalo collector, the type collector, or the investor seeking premium modern U.S. gold, this coin represents an outstanding example of contemporary American numismatic artistry.
