Description
2006-W Proof Gold Buffalo 1 oz, NGC PF70 Ultra Cameo. This exceptional 2006-W Proof Gold Buffalo represents one of the finest examples of this landmark issue. The coin features the iconic American Buffalo design, struck in one troy ounce of pure gold at the West Point Mint. The reverse displays James Earle Fraser's celebrated buffalo design, while the obverse features a Native American profile, creating one of the most artistically significant modern U.S. gold coins. The specimen offered here has achieved the highest possible grade of NGC PF70 Ultra Cameo, denoting perfect strike quality with exceptional contrast between the frosted design elements and mirror fields—the hallmark of premium proof coinage. This represents the very finest quality achievable for this issue. The 2006-W Proof Buffalo remains highly sought after by collectors of modern gold, particularly in gem proof condition, as these coins were produced in limited quantities for the numismatic market. With NGC Certificate Number 9990, this coin represents an outstanding opportunity to acquire a perfect example of this modern classic at the apex of the grading scale.
